Trump says he has no plans to impose sanctions on Russia yet

US President Donald Trump has no plans to impose sanctions against Russia yet, as the meeting with Vladimir Putin in Alaska went well. The American leader said this in an interview with Fox News.

"Today, I don't feel like I have to think about it. I may have to think about it in two or three weeks," Trump said.

The White House announced yesterday that Trump does not want to impose new sanctions against Russia, and that his priority is diplomacy. 

Earlier, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that Washington could increase sanctions pressure on Moscow if the meeting in Alaska does not go well. Bessent recalled the secondary duties imposed on India's purchase of Russian oil . 

The US-Russia summit in Anchorage, Alaska, ended on August 16, after three hours. At a press conference following the talks, Putin called them useful and thorough. He called for a return to cooperation with the US and stressed that the countries have "many interesting areas for joint work." Trump said that the parties had agreed on many points, but that no deal had been reached following the summit.
