Kremlin reacts to Trump's ultimatum "need time to analyze his rhetoric"

The Kremlin has taken note of US President Donald Trump’s statement on Monday about military aid supplies to Kiev and will thoroughly analyze his rhetoric, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said at a news briefing, Tass reported.

"The latest statements from the US president are very serious. Something in them concerns President Putin personally," Peskov said. "We will certainly need time to analyze the rhetoric from Washington," he added.

Trump's remarks came during a July 14 White House press conference with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, where the U.S. president threatened to impose 100% "secondary tariffs" on Russia if a peace deal in Ukraine is not reached within 50 days.

At a meeting Trump said he was "disappointed" with Russia and personally President Vladimir Putin.
