US President Donald Trump announced on September 7 that he was ready to begin a new round of sanctions against Russia in response to the war in Ukraine and planned to speak with Russian President Vladimir Putin soon.
Trump’s remarks came a day after Russia launched a massive drone and missile attack on Ukraine overnight, the latest in a series of attacks as Washington pushes for a peace deal.
During a White House press conference on September 7, a reporter asked Trump: “Are you ready to move on to the second round of sanctions against Russia?”
Trump said he was ready to begin the next phase of sanctions against Russia, although he did not specify any specific measures or timeline for U.S. action.

The powerful leader also revealed that he plans to speak with Putin soon, possibly in the next few days, to resolve the Russia-Ukraine situation.
Trump has expressed his displeasure with recent events, saying, “I’m not happy with what’s happening there,” referring to Russia’s latest aggression.
He also said he was not happy with anything related to the conflict.
The veteran president also revealed that several European leaders are expected to visit the White House in the next two days to discuss a peace deal. However, he did not specify the names of those leaders or any specific details of the talks that will take place.
