Trump Calls Putin ‘Crazy’, Delays 50% Tariffs on EU Goods | The Opening Trade 05/26

President Donald Trump said he was “absolutely” considering new sanctions against Russia as Moscow’s deadly campaign of missile and drone strikes across much of Ukraine extended into a third night. “I’m not happy with what Putin is doing,” Trump said before Moscow’s latest barrage. “He’s killing a lot of people, and I don’t know what the hell happened to Putin. 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.

Trump said he would extend the deadline for the European Union to face 50% tariffs until July 9 after a phone call with Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. The EU had been slated for a 20% tariff under those reciprocal rates announced in April, and a temporary pause took the rate down to 10%.
