Trump and NATO unveil new sanctions on Russia

The U.S. is set to roll out a major sanctions package targeting Russia’s defense, energy, and financial sectors, including secondary penalties on countries still trading with Moscow. President Trump met with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte to coordinate strategy, agreeing that a territorial freeze could be the first step toward a ceasefire. Back-channel talks with Moscow may already be exploring a framework for Ukraine, while Trump confirms a pause on sending Tomahawk missiles, emphasizing diplomacy over escalation.
