Trump 'Very Angry' at Putin; France's Le Pen Guilty
President Donald Trump said he was 'very angry' at Vladimir Putin and threatened 'secondary tariffs' on buyers of his country's oil if the Russian leader refuses a ceasefire with Ukraine. In comments reported by NBC News, Trump said he was 'pissed off' at Putin for casting doubt on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy's legitimacy as a negotiating partner, and threatened curbs on 'all oil coming out of Russia.' He later added that he didn't think the Russian president would 'go back on his word.' In France, far-right leader Marine Le Pen was convicted of embezzlement by a Paris court — but judges haven't yet said if she will pick up a ban that stops her from running to be France's next president.
