Trump zvážil 200procentní cla na Ukrajinu a Rusko, ale přiznal jejich omezenou účinnost
Donald Trump na předvolebním mítinku ve Floridě připustil, že USA by mohly ihned zavést 200procentní clo na dovoz z Ukrajiny a Ruska, aby je přiměly uzavřít mírovou dohodu. Současně však upozornil, že USA od obou zemí nakupují příliš málo zboží, takže tento nástroj by mohl mít omezený vliv. Návrh se objevil v době diplomatických jednání mezi Ukrajinou, Ruskem a americkým vyslancem Stevem Witkoffem.

Proč je to důležité
Návrh 200procentních cel by mohl přidat nový nástroj obchodního tlaku do diplomatických snah o ukončení války. Трамп said the measure could force a peace agreement, but also acknowledged that the limited volume of US imports from Ukraine and Russia weakens its potential leverage. His remarks came amid parallel contacts involving Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Russian President Vladimir Putin and US envoy Steve Witkoff.
Co se stalo
President Donald Trump said at a campaign rally in Florida on 23 October that the United States might immediately impose 200% tariffs on Ukraine and Russia. He argued that such duties could force both sides to end the war and sign a peace agreement. At the same time, he questioned the measure's effectiveness because the United States imports too few goods from the two countries for the threat to carry substantial economic weight. Trump had said on 21 October, following his conversation with Vladimir Putin, that the war's end could be closer than at any previous time. On 20 October, Zelenskyy met Witkoff in Oslo in the presence of Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre and Finnish President Alexander Stubb. Witkoff then met Putin in Saint Petersburg's Konstantin Palace on 21 October, with Kremlin special representative Kirill Dmitriev participating. Witkoff said he had brought Putin documents setting out approaches to ending the war in Ukraine. Zelenskyy said Kyiv was ready for a peace agreement involving a freeze of hostilities along the current front line.

Ukrainian coverage centers Trump's proposed 200% tariffs and his internal contradiction: he expects the measure to force a peace agreement, while acknowledging that weak US trade ties with Ukraine and Russia limit its leverage. The reports place the proposal alongside the Oslo meeting between Zelenskyy and Witkoff, Witkoff's subsequent talks with Putin and Kyiv's stated readiness to accept a freeze along the current front line.
Jak to popisují zahraniční zdroje
International coverage presents the tariff proposal as part of Trump's broader claim that trade threats helped end five conflicts. The example involving India and Pakistan is presented with an important caveat, since India rejected Washington's claim that it caused the ceasefire.

Trump credited threats of 200% tariffs with helping bring about the India-Pakistan ceasefire. India rejected Washington's role and said military leaders from the two countries had reached the agreement directly.

He previously said threats of 200% tariffs helped bring about a ceasefire between India and Pakistan, although India disputed that account. Meanwhile, Zelenskyy said Kyiv was prepared for a peace agreement freezing hostilities along the present front line. Witkoff met Zelenskyy in Oslo before holding talks with Putin in Saint Petersburg, where he said he delivered documents outlining approaches to ending the war in Ukraine.
