Trump sets 10-day deadline for Russia to end Ukraine conflict

US President Donald Trump has given Russia a 10-day deadline starting from Tuesday to reach a ceasefire in Ukraine, significantly shortening the 50-day timeline he had announced earlier this month, Xinhua reported.

Speaking to reporters on his return from Scotland, Trump warned that if Moscow fails to act, the US will impose tariffs. He cited frustration over Russia’s unwillingness to compromise during recent talks with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

The Kremlin responded by reaffirming its commitment to its ongoing military operation while stating it remains open to the peace process, according to Xinhua.
