He made the statement at a press conference on July 28.“Every time I think we’ve resolved everything, President Putin launches a massive missile attack on Ukraine,” Trump said. “We thought we had things sorted out more than once. Then he strikes a city like Kyiv, killing people in a nursing home or somewhere else—bodies lying in the street. This is not the way. So we’ll see what happens. I’m very disappointed.”“I am disappointed in President Putin. Very disappointed,” he repeated. “We’ll need to reassess everything. I'm going to reduce that 50 days that I gave him to a lesser number.”On July 14, Trump had announced plans to impose secondary tariffs on Russia—possibly up to 100%—if no peace deal was reached within 50 days. In response, Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council and former president, dismissed the deadline as a “decorative ultimatum.”
