Live updates: Trump administration; White House crypto summit news
President Donald Trump on Friday threatened new sanctions on Russia, including on its banking sector, in response to Moscow’s continued bombardment of Ukraine — a significant warning as he seeks to end the conflict.
The new threat was notable after weeks of conciliatory statements toward Russia and its President Vladimir Putin, including saying he was open to lifting sanctions.
Now, Trump says he could slap new, tougher sanctions on Russia in his bid to end the war.
