Kyiv • UNN
US President Donald Trump announced his intention to use economic sanctions to prevent a world war. He also noted that there would be no world war, but there could be an economic one, which would be bad for Russia.
US President Donald Trump announced his intention to impose economic sanctions to prevent a world war. This was reported by UNN with reference to a government meeting at the White House on Tuesday, August 26.
We have economic sanctions. I'm talking about economic sanctions because we're not going to have a world war. I think if I hadn't won the election, Ukraine would have been in a world war. Now it won't turn into a world war.
"There will be no world war, but there will be an economic war. And if there is an economic war, it will be bad. Bad for Russia. And I don't want that. But I will still have to look, because, you know, Zelensky is not innocent either. It takes two to tango," Trump added.
