US says ‘all options on table’ after Russia launches biggest air attack of the war
US President Donald Trump is said to be tiring of the slow pace of peace negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, according to a report by the Wall Street Journal.
The report said the Trump administration was eyeing wider sanctions against Russia this week, but noted that Trump might “also decide not to impose new sanctions.”
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement to the paper that Trump wanted “to see a negotiated peace deal” and has “also smartly kept all options on the table.”
Trump issued some of his sharpest criticism of Russian leader Vladimir Putin on Sunday after
Trump said Putin was “absolutely crazy” for having accelerated its air campaign in Ukraine and the Kremlin said Trump was being “emotional.”
Trump told reporters Sunday he was also “absolutely” considering sanctions and repeatedly asked “what’s wrong” with Putin as he spoke about the attacks.
The European Union’s top diplomat Kaja Kallas said the bloc intended to impose more pressure on Moscow so it enters peace negotiations, calling Russia’s latest air campaign “totally appalling.”
