U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday set a 10- to 12-day deadline for Russia to show progress toward ending its war in Ukraine, escalating pressure on Moscow.
Trump, who is holding meetings in Scotland, said earlier Monday that he was going to shorten a 50-day deadline he had set because of frustration with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The U.S. president said he was "very disappointed" with Russian President Vladimir Putin, criticizing his decision to continue airstrikes against civilian targets in Ukraine.
Speaking alongside Starmer outside his hotel in Turnberry, South Ayrshire, Trump said: "We thought we had it settled numerous times, and then President Putin goes out and starts launching rockets into some city like Kiev and kills a lot of people in a nursing home or whatever.
"You have bodies lying all over the street, and I say that's not the way to do it. So we'll see what happens with that."
