Trump is using Putin: how US customs wars will affect Russia Petro Sineokiy

US President Donald Trump has made a stormy return to politics. He is threatening tariffs even on his own allies.

Doctor of Economics, head of Adventer Group Andrey Dligach told Channel 24 about this, noting that Trump's actions are quite ambiguous. He does certain things that Putin likes.

What to Expect from Trump

As Dligach noted, certain actions by Trump literally destroy the institutional approach and global agreements. His intentions to withdraw the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement, from international courts and other organizations; Putin clearly likes the idea of ​​leaving the WHO.

He is also destroying the infrastructure of democracy around the world. I mean USAID and other programs. This is a game in Russia's favor. Trump is actually using the same tools and approaches that Putin is implementing. This puts them on the same side, so to speak, Dligach said.

Despite this, Trump has his own agenda. He is not looking for an ally in Putin, but is also using him to strengthen himself and realize his global ambitions. In the end, Trump will probably come to the conclusion that Russia needs to be significantly weakened.

Tactically, Russia may benefit from Trump's actions. But strategically, no. I think that Trump will eventually get around to economic and military assistance for Ukraine. To lower oil prices and weaken Russia. He will also work to prevent World War III, which Russia and China may want to start, Dligach noted.

Recall that from February 1, Donald Trump introduced a 10% tariff on goods from China. Tariffs against Mexico and Canada were temporarily postponed.
