Putin rejects Trump's ultimatum and prepares for a new offensive

Vladimir Putin has dismissed Donald Trump's 50-day ultimatum and tariff threats, signaling Russia's intent to escalate the war in Ukraine rather than back down.

According to Kremlin-linked sources cited by Reuters, Putin is unfazed by sanctions and determined to fight until the West accepts his terms - including recognition of occupied territories and limits on Ukraine's military. With Russian forces already controlling a fifth of Ukraine, his ambitions may grow further as the front advances.

One source warned of a major new offensive in the coming months, possibly targeting Dnipro, Sumy, or Kharkiv if Ukraine's defenses falter.

Putin still demands NATO halt expansion and that the West legally recognize his gains. "He believes no one has seriously talked peace," a source added. "So he'll keep going until he gets what he wants."
