Trump Tariff: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has supported US President Donald Trump's tariff policy. He said that the way Trump imposed tariffs was absolutely the right decision. Criticizing some European countries for buying oil and gas from Russia, Zelensky stated that trade with Russia should be completely stopped. He expressed confidence that Trump would be successful in stopping Russia.
Zelensky's Reaction to Trump's Tariffs
US President Donald Trump has imposed heavy tariffs on many countries, including India. Now, Ukrainian President Zelensky has supported Trump's move. He said that imposing tariffs is a good idea because it will put pressure on countries that continue to trade with Russia.
In an interview with ABC News, Zelensky explained that recently, a meeting took place between Modi, Putin, and Xi Jinping at the SCO summit. Following this, US President Trump said that he had lost India and Russia to China. In response, Zelensky stated that it is right to impose tariffs on countries that are still buying oil and gas from Russia.
Criticism of European Countries on Trade with Russia
Zelensky also questioned the policies of European countries. He said that while it is America's responsibility to increase pressure on Putin, some European countries are still buying oil and gas from Russia. He stated, "We have to stop all kinds of purchases from Russia. This is not right in any way."
Zelensky said that to stop Putin, it is essential to end all deals with Russia. He also expressed confidence that only US President Donald Trump can succeed in this task.
Situation After Trump-Putin Meeting in Alaska
Zelensky recalled that the Trump-Putin meeting took place in Alaska three weeks ago. Even after this, Russia has continuously been attacking Ukraine. According to Zelensky, in this situation, Trump's strategy of tariffs and pressure is extremely important. He said that international cooperation is necessary to exert more pressure on Russia, but many European countries continue to trade with Russia. Therefore, imposing tariffs and stopping trade with Russia would be an effective step.
