Trump did not agree with the statement about Russia's rejection of proposals on Ukraine

US President Donald Trump categorically disagreed with the statement about Russia's rejection of American proposals for a cease-fire in Ukraine. On March 22, he responded to a question from a journalist who asked about the possibility of imposing new sanctions against Russia because of Russian leader Vladimir Putin's alleged rejection of the idea of a cease-fire.

"He (Putin — Ed.) did not reject anything, and they have sanctions. There are many sanctions imposed on them. They have almost more sanctions than anyone else," Trump replied.
