"Hungary anticipates achieving a Russia-US accord regarding Ukraine by early September" or "Hungary plans for a US-Russia agreement on Ukraine by early September"
In a significant development, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has set a deadline for the resolution of the ongoing Ukrainian conflict. During a phone call with Ukraine's Foreign Minister Andrij Sybiha, Rubio emphasized President Donald Trump's determination to end the war quickly and the need for all parties to take steps toward sustainable peace.
Rubio's comments came in response to questions about the warning from the American administration, which was made by President Trump on July 14. Trump announced the possibility of the US imposing 100% import tariffs on Russia and its trading partners if the Ukrainian conflict remains unresolved.
The deadline for resolving the conflict, beyond which tariffs would be imposed, is set for early September. The deadline expires in approximately 50 days, according to the diplomat's statements. Rubio did not provide details about the nature of the solution he hopes to find for the Ukraine issue.
If the tariffs are imposed, they would be a significant economic measure by the US government. The tariffs would be contingent on the resolution of the Ukrainian conflict and would affect all imports from Russia and its trading partners, amounting to 100% on all imports.
Diplomat Siйярto, who held a press conference, made similar comments in response to questions about the warning from the American administration. He expressed hope that secondary tariffs could be avoided and that a solution to the Ukraine issue will be found within the timeframe set by President Trump.
The potential imposition of secondary tariffs is not a new threat. Last month, Trump warned Russia and other countries that they would face severe consequences if they continued to support the Ukrainian conflict. The diplomat did not specify the countries to which the warning from the American administration was sent.
The Ukrainian conflict, which has been ongoing since 2014, has been a source of tension between Russia and the West. The conflict began when Russia annexed Crimea from Ukraine, a move that was widely condemned by the international community. Since then, fighting has continued in Eastern Ukraine, with both the Ukrainian government and Russian-backed separatists accusing each other of violating the ceasefire.
The deadline for resolving the Ukrainian conflict, beyond which tariffs would be imposed, is a clear warning to all parties involved. The US government is signaling its commitment to finding a peaceful solution to the conflict and is prepared to take economic measures if necessary. The next few weeks will be crucial in determining whether the Ukrainian conflict can be resolved peacefully or if economic sanctions will be imposed.
