Trump has taken a wait-and-see approach regarding new sanctions against Russia. He plans to make a final decision after the second round of negotiations between Moscow and Kyiv. This was reported by The Atlantic magazine, citing sources in the White House administration.
One of the president's close advisors noted that, despite frustration with the lack of noticeable progress in the negotiations, the American leader continues to hope for a peaceful agreement.
"The president is furious, but he still hopes to strike a deal. He is trying to find the best way to it," said the source.
