President Trump said Tuesday it was likely he would impose additional sanctions on Russia if it did not come to the negotiating table to broker a ceasefire in Ukraine. "Sounds likely," Trump said of potential sanctions on Moscow. Trump has called for a ceasefire in Ukraine, urging both sides to negotiate. Russian forces invaded Ukraine in early 2022, and both sides have sustained heavy losses in the nearly three years of fighting. The president told reporters on Tuesday that he had suggested to Chinese President Xi Jinping during a recent phone call that Beijing to help get the conflict settled. "I said, you ought to get it settled, because he’s not done very much on that. He’s got a lot of power," Trump said. Asked if he intends to cut off U.S. support for Ukraine, Trump did not give a firm answer, but he argued European nations should be doing more since they are in closer proximity to the conflict.
