U.S. President Donald
Trump on Wednesday expressed hesitation toward imposing new
sanctions on Russia over the war in Ukraine, saying he did not
want the penalties to interfere with getting a ceasefire.
Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Trump said on
sanctions: "If I think I'm close to getting a deal, I don't want
to screw it up by doing that."
Trump also said Russian President Vladimir Putin may be
intentionally delaying negotiations on a ceasefire in the war in
Ukraine and expressed disappointment at recent Russian bombing.
"We're going to find out whether or not he's tapping us
along or not, and if he is, we'll respond a little differently,"
Trump said.
