Donald Trump's 'Father Figure' Strategy Toward Russia Backfires
Tuesday, 15 July 2025 () Donald Trump is facing backlash from parts of his own political base after issuing a 50-day ultimatum to Russia tied to peace negotiations in the Ukraine conflict. On July 14, the U.S. president announced a new plan involving delayed sanctions and weapons deliveries, which critics argue aligns him more with the war policies of Joe Biden than with his prior rhetoric. “These steps represent a fundamentally new approach to the conflict, from which Trump had previously tried to distance himself since taking office in January,” CNN reported. As part of the plan, Trump threatened to impose 100% tariffs on Russian exports and secondary sanctions on importers of Russian oil, if Moscow doesn't come to the negotiating table within 50 days. Globalist media and institutions were quick to praise the shift. The nuance for the West is that Europe, through NATO, will be purchasing American weapons and handing over used systems to Ukraine. But logistical delays have already surfaced: Germany claims it will take two months to deliver the first Patriot air defense system.
