US President Donald Trump said he is "very angry" and "pissed off" with Russian President Vladimir Putin over ceasefire negotiations in Ukraine. Trump criticized Putin for attacking Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s credibility and threatened to impose a 50% tariff on countries buying Russian oil if a ceasefire is not agreed upon. Trump also accused Zelensky of trying to back out of a deal to share Ukraine's rare minerals with the US and warned of "big, big problems" if that were the case.
