Europe believes that Trump's 50 days for putin are too long

US President Donald Trump should give russian dictator vladimir putin a shorter deadline to cease fire and start negotiations with Ukraine.

According to The Telegraph, the head of European diplomacy, Kaja Kallas, made the corresponding statement.

According to her, the fact that the US President has taken a tough stance towards the russian dictator is positive news.

"On the other hand, 50 days is a very long period if we see that they are killing innocent civilians," Kallas said.

She added that the West should increase pressure on putin to force him to a peaceful settlement.

Recall, yesterday, July 14, President Trump threatened to impose a 100% tariff on basic goods imported from russia if putin does not agree to negotiations within 50 days.

Last Thursday, July 10, Trump announced his readiness to impose tough sanctions on russia, but only if he gets the right to independently lift or postpone the restrictions without the intervention of Congress.

At the end of June this year, US Republican Senator Lindsey Graham announced that the US had prepared a bill on new sanctions.
