Russia Excluded From US Tariff List Due To Ongoing Ceasefire Negotiations, White House Says

Lmao. They're either terrified of Putin or trying to help him.

First they claimed they didn't put tariffs on Russia due to them already being heavily sanctioned, but other heavily sanctioned countries have tariffs enforced onto them, so that was a lie. Then they claimed that they didn't put tariffs on Russia because they don't trade with Russia, despite Russia-America trade still being $3.5bn so that was another lie. Now they've changed their minds again and said Russia doesn't have tariffs because of ceasefire negotiations, and yet Ukraine has tariffs who are also part of ceasefire negotiations.

It's just lovely how Russia gets given multiple concessions, from America demanding Ukraine surrender territory, to America discussing bringing Russia back into G7, to America refusing to be part of Ukraine's security assurances, to America voting alongside Russia in UN, to America considering recognising Crimea as Russian, to America discussing sanction relief on Russia, to America blocking Ukraine from NATO.

Lovely how Russia can outright refuse Trump's total ceasefire and he says "Okay" and then narrows it down to a meagre energy ceasefire to which Russia breaks immediately on the hour of talks ending, it's lovely that Trump himself recognised that Russia has broken the ceasefire but made excuses for them that there's anger on both sides, that Russia can openly mock Trump on Russian State TV and outright refuse a total ceasefire while Ukraine has been saying they'd accept one for months now.

All this and America's response has been "Lets give Russia a few extra weeks" after already giving them a few extra weeks. Meanwhile America demands that Ukraine surrender all its natural resources to America, pay them totally made up reparations and all it takes for America to go hard on Ukraine is Zelenskyy not wearing a suit, meanwhile Russian State TV can mock Trump, plaster his wife's nudes over the TV to mock her, break ceasefires multiple times, reject his other ceasefire attempts and Trump goes "P-P-Please lets give daddy Putin a few more weeks"

None of this would be so incredibly bad if Trump was receiving money and other compensations from Russia, because that would be a logical reason for his traitorous behavior. But true to his stupidity, he's doing all of this for free.
