Bild learned about Ukraine's concerns on the eve of Trump's "big statement" about Russia

US President Donald Trump has promised to make a "big statement" about Russia. In Ukraine, they are waiting for him with anxiety, because they do not know his contents. The Bild newspaper writes about this on July 13, citing sources.

It is noted that Ukraine and Europe are concerned about whether Trump will agree to impose new sanctions against Russia or not. Kiev and Brussels fear that the head of the White House will not take such a step, as it may have negative consequences for the US economy.

"The argument against this is that his voters are divided; many do not want economic consequences that could also threaten the United States," the newspaper quoted a source in the Ukrainian government as saying.

The article clarifies that Trump has not yet ruled out, but also has not confirmed the possibility of imposing new sanctions.
