At least 22 Ukrainians have been killed and another 85 injured in Russian strikes across the country overnight, prompting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to call for “very harsh, truly painful” sanctions on Russia.

Earlier this month, Trump set a 50-day deadline for Russia to accept a ceasefire. Failure to do so, the president said, would prompt punishing new economic measures, among them secondary sanctions on nations doing business with Moscow.

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the United States would start imposing tariffs and other measures on Russia "10 days from today" if Moscow showed no progress toward ending its more than three-year-long war in Ukraine.

Russia on Sunday opened a regular air link between Moscow and Pyogyang, a move reflecting increasingly close ties between the two countries.

President Trump’s threats have raised questions about how much leverage the United States has left with Moscow.

President Donald Trump moved up the deadline for Russia to strike a peace deal with Ukraine, saying the Kremlin has 10 days to formulate a plan or hefty sanctions will be imposed. The White House previously gave Russia with 50 days to broker a deal before it would be penalized.
