US President Donald Trump has announced that the United States will impose new sanctions against Russia after the 10-day deadline for a settlement in Ukraine expires.
The US president said he was not sure that they would be of any use.
"We will impose sanctions. I am not sure that sanctions bother them. They know what sanctions are. I know more about sanctions, tariffs, and everything else than anyone. I don't know if it will be of any use or not, but we will do it," the US president said.
Trump also announced that his special envoy Steve Witkoff will leave for Moscow immediately after he visits Israel.
"Yes, he is going to Israel and then to Russia, believe it or not," the US president said.
