March 22, 2025 (EIRNS)—President Donald Trump said last night that there is no deadline for a ceasefire in his talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin. “Not a deadline, but I think we’ll have one” ceasefire, Trump said, speaking to reporters at the White House on March 21.
Trump also dismissed claims that Putin had rejected a ceasefire altogether. When asked by a journalist, “Why won’t you impose sanctions on Russia after Putin rejected your ceasefire offer?” President Trump responded: “He didn’t reject anything, and they do have sanctions.”
