Donald Trump has threatened to sanction Russia multiple times in relation to the ongoing war in Ukraine.
As of March 7, 2025, recent reports indicate that Trump warned of imposing "large-scale" sanctions, including banking sanctions and tariffs, on Russia unless a ceasefire and peace agreement with Ukraine is reached.
This threat was made in a Truth Social post where he stated he was "strongly considering" these measures due to Russia’s intensified military actions against Ukraine.
Earlier, on January 21, 2025, Trump had also indicated he would likely impose sanctions if Russian President Vladimir Putin refused to negotiate an end to the conflict, and on January 22, 2025, he expanded this threat to include tariffs alongside sanctions.
These statements mark a shift from his campaign rhetoric, where he claimed he could end the war quickly, and reflect a pattern of using economic pressure as a negotiation tactic.

So far. Go back to sleep, Nerdsperg. I'll wake you if Trump is forced to act by Putin's intransigence.
Maybe "actions" like dancing soldier videos will scare Putin more, Nerdsperg.
Our Kursk Debacle is just the latest effort to scare the Russians that has failed.
