Trump's strategy to pressure Russia is straightforward - sanctioning its top trade partners if they continue doing business with Russia. This means warning countries like India and China that if they buy Russian oil, the US will sever trade ties with them. Trump's administration has already shown a willingness to use secondary sanctions to force countries to choose between doing business with the US or Russia.

In his first term, Trump imposed sanctions on Chinese persons and entities to counter China's ties with other US adversaries, like Iran and North Korea. His administration added 216 Chinese persons to the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN) List and 259 Chinese persons to the Entity List.

If Trump decides to expand sanctions on Russia, he'll likely target Russia's energy sector, financial institutions, and defense industry. He'll also use secondary sanctions to pressure other countries to stop doing business with Russia. Trump's goal is to make it difficult for Russia to find new trade partners, thereby weakening its economy and forcing it to change its behavior.

Putin is not a pushover or can be threatened. Just negotiate peacefully

Sobalim:
Trump is a man with balls

Seems you are gay or you are a transgender.

Arostar2023:
USA can target those that Russia does business with. And that's going to hurt... even China's economy will suffer if America decides to play rough ball with them. Or is it South Africa that can withstand Trump? None of the BRICS nations can challenge the USA.

maziude:
More like a dumb fellow.

US do not trade with Russia since the war started. So what trade is going to place tariffs on?

WrriterNg:
Let them go ahead and see who will cry the most.

Because Russia does business with nearly every country. Can the US sanction half of the world?

WrriterNg:
You overstimate the US.

The US cannot survive on its own.

70% of US goods are made in China. If they sanction China, they're done.

Even China have clearly chosen Russia's side, openly. That shows you they no longer care about US sanctions.

SATAN GET BEHIND ME.

igbosarejews:
I even thought you're educated more than this, but as usual, reasoning like some of these Tinubu media warriors. You think China will leave it's strategic business interest with USA and Europe to deal with already battered Russian economy, what will China gain from Russia, Rubble is already going down, most companies are leaving Russia. Their economy is now a war economy.

Enough of trump and US news abeg

We have our own problems to deal with

Oga, Russia have been selling oil and gas in Rubles since 2022 after Putin's order.

European countries have to open a Rubles account in Russia to be able to buy. Google it.

It's impossible to continue selling in Dollars after the sanctions.

You think they're stupid enough to pause gas sales because of sanctions? They have no choice but to sell in Rubles.

WrriterNg:
Russia is the most sanctioned nation on earth.

With almost 30,000 sanctions on it. And yet still growing and having budget surpluses back to back to back.

What would a couple more sanctions do that 30,000 sanctions couldn't do? Lmaooo.

Russia doesn’t even use the US dollars anymore, to begin with. So what exactly will Trump be sanctioning??

Russia sells it's oil, gas, uranium, steel in Rubles & Gold.

Babzrockman:

WrriterNg:
They have done all that.

30,000 sanctions and counting. Yet China and India have sworn not to stop doing business with Russia.

The US is wasting their time.
