    1. Bro should just do it already !

      Too many words and blah blah blah

      That mf loves talking into a camera. Will say and do anything to be on TV

    2. Wait, he is asking the same NATO countries that he is also threatening with tariffs and with the US leaving NATO?

      Right. This is the same shit he has been saying for 9 months. Does he not see they are moving on without him?

      He also said he could end the war. Putin is laughing in his face.

    3. This likely would have been more effective if he had done this before sending out all the tariffs in April. Keep it as the big stick to get the pressure up that he seems to want now.

    4. He’s setting up an artificial bar for US imposing sanctions, which he will never acknowledge the other NATO countries meeting, he’ll just raise that bar or never refer to this again

      He’s not increasing sanctions in any real way

      This is just another excuse for not doing anything

      FYI – The EU purchased €1.5billion fossil fuel in June alone from Russia. China purchased about €5 billion a month. India €4.5 billion in the month. Turkey €2 billion.

    6. One of the very few things that he actually is doing that is smart. This war is literally crippling Russians economy which is very oil based. If people stopped buying Russian oil the war would be over very soon

    7. He knows there are one or two NATO countries (his closest allies * wink wink *) who would not risk economical calamity by not buying Russian gas and oil. He is just trying to excuse not sanctioning Russia as long as he can to screw Ukraine.

      On top of that, he wants to force Europe to buy only from the U.S. companies then gouge prices.

      So USA scammed Europe with LNG and now they plan to do the same with oil?

      “Tariff russia so i can sell you mine at a premium”, what a sad dying empire
