Trump, European leaders threaten ‘massive’ sanctions if Putin doesn’t accept 30-day cease-fire by Monday

"President Trump and European leaders demanded Russian strongman Vladimir Putin agree to a 30-day cease-fire with Ukraine starting Monday, or face “massive” sanctions and bolstered military support for Kyiv.
The ultimatum came Saturday out of Kyiv, where Volodymyr Zelensky sat down with the “Coalition of the Willing” — French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer — to discuss the US-led cease-fire plan.
The group was also joined by leaders from more over 30 countries, the European Union and NATO who tuned in remotely, the Ukrainian president said."
