Vladimir Putin's finally starting to sweat ‐ so it's time for Trump to turn up the heat
2026-02-15
[NY Post] With Vladimir Putin’s war machine sputtering, it’s time to push the Kremlin even harder to force an end to his war on Ukraine.

President Donald Trump’s moves such as seizing “shadow fleet” tankers and piling on new tariffs on importers of Moscow’s oil are plainly hitting hard: You can tell because Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov is whining that Washington won’t make Kyiv agree to de facto surrender (e.g., Russian control over Ukraine’s post-war government) as he claims President Donald Trump had agreed to do.

Why does Russia need America’s intervention, if it’s winning on the battlefield?
