U.S. president Donald Trump announced Monday, July 28, that he will impose a fresh deadline on Russian President Vladimir Putin to end the ongoing war in Ukraine, citing a lack of progress in diplomatic efforts.
“I’m going to make a new deadline of about 10 or 12 days from today. There’s no reason in waiting, we just don’t see any progress being made,” Trump told reporters.
The unexpected move adds urgency to the already fraught geopolitical standoff, with Trump appearing to signal impatience with the pace of negotiations. The details of any potential consequences following the deadline remain unclear.
Trump made the announcement while meeting with UK PM Starmer, during which the two leaders discussed global security, NATO cooperation, and the situation in Eastern Europe.
