Europe stumped by Trump's demands over Russia sanctions
Cape Argus
|September 17, 2025
UNITED States President Donald Trump has demanded that allies stop buying Russian oil before he moves on punishing Moscow, and told them to hit China with tariffs.
-
But Trump's requests do not seem feasible, and the EU notes that it has already hammered the Kremlin with sanctions.
Meanwhile, diplomats fear it could be a ploy by Trump to stall on taking a tough stance against Russia himself.
Ina Truth Social post at the weekend, Trump said he would impose “major sanctions” on Moscow if all Nato countries stopped buying Russian oil.
The 27-nation EU has already banned most imports of Russian oil after the Kremlin's 2022 invasion of Ukraine, slashing the share of oil it imports from Russia from 29% in early 2021 to 2% by mid-2025.
Currently, Hungary and Slovakia, both countries friendly to Moscow and Trump, still buy oil from Russia.
