Trump says he will meet with Putin, Zelenskyy ‘if necessary’ amid negotiations to end war

President Donald Trump said he would meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksyy in the coming weeks «if necessary.»
The president’s comments come just after he condemned Russia’s recent large-scale strike against Ukraine.
Russian forces launched hundreds of drones and missiles at Ukrainian cities overnight Sunday. The attack, which has been called the largest aerial attack of the war so far, targeted the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv.
TRUMP SAYS HE’S ‘NOT HAPPY’ WITH PUTIN AFTER MASSIVE UKRAINE STRIKE
Ukrainian officials said that at least 12 people were killed and dozens more were injured.
Though past strikes have proven more deadly, the attack is the largest-scale aerial assault of the war in terms of the number of weapons: 298 drones and 69 missiles were launched.

The president on Wednesday was asked if he believes Putin actually wants to end the war with Ukraine, to which Trump replied: «I can’t tell you that, but I’ll let you know in about two weeks.»
«Within two weeks, we’re going to find out whether or not he’s tapping us along or not,» Trump told reporters at the Oval Office during a swearing-in ceremony for Jeanine Pirro as interim U.S. attorney. «And if he is, we will respond a little bit differently.»
Trump said his special envoy for the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, is «doing a phenomenal job» and «dealing with them very strongly right now.»
«They seem to want to do something,» Trump said.
But Trump again condemned Russia’s attack, saying he is «very disappointed at what happened a couple of nights now where people were killed — in what you would call a negotiation.»
«I’m very disappointed by that,» Trump said. «Very, very disappointing.»
TRUMP WARNS PUTIN IS ‘PLAYING WITH FIRE’ AFTER DECLARING THE RUSSIAN PRESIDENT HAS ‘GONE ABSOLUTELY CRAZY’
Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has expressed a willingness to sit down again with Trump and with Putin in Geneva.

When asked if he was planning to sit down with Putin and Zelenskyy, Trump said he would be willing.
«Well, if it’s necessary… we have to, I think at this point. I wish you would have been that way a couple of months ago, but at this point, we’re working on President Putin, and we’ll see where we are,» Trump said. «I think we’re doing fine, but we’ll see.»
Special Envoy Keith Kellogg is preparing for possible talks in Geneva, though it remains unclear when they will be held. Russia has yet to agree to the U.S.’s peace proposal, and its foreign ministry Tuesday claimed it was still working on its memorandum of terms.
Russia has suggested a possible meeting in Istabul, Turkey.
Meanwhile, the president again on Wednesday said: «I don’t like what’s happening. It’s one thing I’ll say — I don’t like when I see rockets being shot into cities. That’s no good. We’re not going to allow it.»
The president, over the weekend, blasted Putin, saying he is «killing a lot of people.»
«I don’t know what the hell happened to Putin,» he said over the weekend. «I’ve known him a long time, always gotten along with him, but he’s sending rockets into cities and killing people, and I don’t like it at all.»
In a post on Telegram, Zelenskyy called for an international response to the attack.

«The silence of America, the silence of others in the world only encourages Putin,» he wrote on Telegram. «Every such terrorist Russian strike is reason enough for new sanctions against Russia.»
Trump expanded on his comments later Sunday, writing on Truth Social that Putin «has gone absolutely CRAZY!» while also criticizing Zelenskyy.

«I’ve always said that (Putin) wants ALL of Ukraine, not just a piece of it, and maybe that’s proving to be right, but if he does, it will lead to the downfall of Russia!» the social media post read. «Likewise, President Zelenskyy is doing his Country no favors by talking the way he does. Everything out of his mouth causes problems, I don’t like it, and it better stop.»
«This is a War that would never have started if I were President,» Trump concluded. «This is Zelenskyy’s, Putin’s, and Biden’s War, not ‘Trump’s,’ I am only helping to put out the big and ugly fires, that have been started through Gross Incompetence and Hatred.»

ICE raid tipoffs from Dem lawmaker could mean charges, says DHS rep: ‘Looks like obstruction’

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A Democratic state lawmaker tipping off ICE operations in her community could be hit with obstruction-of-justice charges, a spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security told Fox News Digital.
After Democratic Arizona state Senator Analise Ortiz admitted on social media to alerting her community about ICE movements, DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin claimed in a statement to Fox News Digital that the lawmaker is choosing illegal criminals over American citizens.
«Arizona state Senator Analise Ortiz is siding with vicious cartels, human traffickers, and violent criminals over American citizens,» said McLaughlin.
«Notifying the public about ICE law enforcement operations endangers law enforcement and weakens American national security,» she went on.

In response to Fox News Digital’s question about whether Ortiz could face charges, McLaughlin answered, «This certainly looks like obstruction of justice.»
She pointed to DHS statistics that ICE officers are currently facing an 830 percent increase in assaults.
«The men and women of ICE put their lives on the line every day to arrest violent criminal illegal aliens to protect and defend the lives of American citizens,» said McLaughlin. «Make no mistake, sanctuary politicians like Arizona Senator Analise Ortiz are contributing to the surge in assaults of our ICE officers through their repeated vilification and demonization of ICE.»
This comes after popular conservative social media page «Libs of TikTok» blasted Ortiz for posting alerts on her account giving updates on ICE operations in the area. Libs of TikTok posted a screenshot, indicating it belonged to Ortiz, that warned in English and Spanish, «ICE is present.» The post also gave the location of the federal officials’ whereabouts.

Libs of TikTok wrote, «Arizona State Senator Analise Ortiz (D) is actively impeding and doxxing ICE by posting their live locations on instagram.» The account urged Border Czar Tom Homan, the DHS and ICE to file charges against Ortiz.
In response, Ortiz admitted to alerting her community about ICE activity, saying, «Yep. When ICE is around, I will alert my community to stay out of the area.»
Seemingly in response to the Libs of TikTok’s call for charges against her, Ortiz also wrote, «I’m not f*****g scared of you nor Trump’s masked goons.»
After the comment, Arizona Senate Warren Petersen, a Republican, issued a statement reprimanding Ortiz: «Public servants have a duty to uphold the law and respect those who enforce it, not undermine them.»

Petersen said he had referred the matter to the U.S. Attorney for the District of Arizona for investigation «as it appears she may be in violation of federal law.»

Ortiz has remained defiant, writing in an X post, «I will not be intimidated. I will alert our community to avoid the area when Trump’s masked thugs terrorize us all, regardless of citizenship. Trump doesn’t respect our laws nor our constitution. My duty is to keep people safe from his unconstitutional and authoritarian actions.»

Trump confirmó que aplicará 50% de aranceles a la India por haberle comprado petróleo a Rusia

El presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, firmó este miércoles una orden ejecutiva para imponer aranceles adicionales del 25% a la India en represalia por la compra de petróleo ruso por parte de ese país. De esa manera, el gravamen total a las importaciones indias se eleva al 50%, el mayor aplicado por Washington junto al de Brasil.
Según el texto difundido por la Casa Blanca, el nuevo impuesto entrará en vigor dentro de 21 días, es decir, el 27 de agosto. Anteriormente, el gobierno de Trump ya había impuesto un arancel del 25 % a las importaciones procedentes de la India con el objetivo de reducir el déficit comercial bilateral.

En tanto, Brasil recurrió este miércoles a la Organización Mundial del Comercio (OMC) contra los aranceles impuestos por el presidente Trump, confirmaron dos fuentes gubernamentales brasileñas.
El gobierno de Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva presentó un pedido de consultas ante la misión de Estados Unidos en la OMC, tras la entrada en vigor este miércoles de tarifas comerciales de 50% a productos brasileños en el mercado estadounidense.
Por qué Donald Trump elevó los aranceles a la India
Trump anunció el lunes que aumentaría los aranceles a la India por comprar “cantidades masivas de petróleo ruso. No les importa cuántas personas en Ucrania estén siendo asesinadas por la maquinaria de guerra rusa”, expresó en su plataforma de Truth Social.
La India, el tercer mayor importador de crudo del mundo, adoptó una postura neutral y pragmática en la guerra de Ucrania, y pasó de importar menos del 2 % de su petróleo desde Rusia a más de un tercio. Así, convirtió a Moscú en su principal proveedor, aprovechando los descuentos ofrecidos por el Kremlin. Donald Trump castiga a la India con aranceles récord (Foto/Ilustración: REUTERS/Dado Ruvic)
A pesar de la creciente presión estadounidense, el Gobierno de la India defiende la importación de petróleo ruso como una decisión de “interés nacional” y una acción que contribuye a la estabilidad energética global.
Nueva Delhi afirma que su política energética responde a la “necesidad nacional” de garantizar energía a sus 1400 millones de habitantes.

Trump dio el martes de la semana pasada un nuevo ultimátum de diez días al Kremlin para que declare una tregua en Ucrania. El plazo vence este próximo viernes, cuando podría anunciar nuevas sanciones para Rusia.
Qué dijo la India tras los nuevos aranceles de Donald Trump
Tras el anuncio de Trump, el Gobierno de la India calificó de “injustos, injustificados e irracionales” los nuevos aranceles y advirtió de que “tomará todas las acciones necesarias” para proteger sus intereses.
“Es extremadamente desafortunado que EE.UU. elija imponer aranceles adicionales a la India por acciones que muchos otros países también están llevando a cabo en su propio interés nacional”, señala la declaración oficial.
Esta respuesta se suma a una contraofensiva diplomática que Nueva Delhi ya lanzó el pasado lunes, cuando en una declaración más extensa, la India acusó a Occidente de “hipocresía”, detallando su propio comercio con Rusia en sectores como el uranio o el gas.
La decisión de Trump de duplicar los aranceles es la culminación de meses de tensión que ponen a ambas potencias al borde de una guerra comercial. La crisis se gestó en abril, cuando Washington amenazó con “aranceles recíprocos”, dando paso a semanas de intensas pero infructuosas negociaciones.
El gobierno de Lula recurre a la OMC
Mientras tanto, el gobierno de Luiz Lula da Silva recurrió a la Organización Mundial del Comercio (OMC) para denunciar los aranceles del 50% impuestos por Estados Unidos a muchos de sus productos, algunos tan importantes como el café y la carne, en una nueva escalada entre Washington y la primera economía latinoamericana.
Estados Unidos exporta más a Brasil de lo que importa, pero Trump desafió a Lula por lo que considera una “caza de brujas” contra su predecesor Jair Bolsonaro, juzgado por una presunta intentona golpista en 2022.
Además la Casa Blanca califica la política brasileña de “amenaza inusual y extraordinaria”. El presidente brasileño Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva en el palacio presidencial de Planalto en Brasilia el 1 de agosto del 2025. (AP foto/Eraldo Peres)
Por todo ello, a partir de este miércoles subió del 10% al 50% las tarifas aduaneras a muchos productos brasileños. Además, otorgó un plazo adicional a los productos cargados en barcos antes del 7 de agosto y que lleguen a Estados Unidos antes del 5 de octubre.
Según Brasilia, el 36% de las exportaciones del país a Estados Unidos se verán afectadas por impuestos suplementarios, una situación que exaspera a Lula.

Brasil no se quedó de brazos cruzados. Este mismo miércoles presentó un pedido de consultas ante la misión de Estados Unidos en la OMC.
“Nuestra democracia está siendo cuestionada, nuestra soberanía está siendo atacada, nuestra economía está siendo agredida (…) En ningún tarifazo aplicado a otros países hubo intento de injerencia sobre la independencia de los poderes del país”, añadió.
