Russia has rejected President Trump's "ultimatum" for Moscow to sign a ceasefire deal to end the war in Ukraine within 50 days on Tuesday as "unacceptable," calling for continued negotiations and insisting that the invasion ordered by President Vladimir Putin would continue until its goals are achieved.

Moscow issues chilling six-word verdict on Trump's warning to PutinDuring his meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, President Donald Trump threatened 100% tariffs on Moscow unless the war is ended.
The European Union did not approve the 18th Russia sanctions package on Tuesday, the EU's foreign chief Kaja Kallas said after a meeting with EU foreign ministers in Brussels. She said she was "really sad" the sanctions did not get approved,
“Putin will not negotiate as a loser,” one of his longtime associates tells TIME by phone from Moscow. “He knows that winners don’t get punished, and if he wins, all of this” — the sanctions, the tariffs — “will go away.”
Donald Trump’s remarks on Ukraine on Monday were far from the biggest announcement the US president could have made.
