Donald Trump has revealed his plan to end the Ukraine war, saying if "Nato does as I say" the war will end "quickly".
The US President vowed that he was "ready to do major sanction on Russia".
That is on the condition that all Nato countries agree to stop buying oil from Russia.
Posting to Truth Social, Mr Trump said "I am ready to do major Sanctions on Russia when all NATO Nations have agreed, and started, to do the same thing, and when all NATO Nations STOP BUYINF OIL FROM RUSSIA".
Potus claimed that Nato's commitment to put an end to the war was "far less than 100" per cent.
Mr Trump said it was "shocking" some members were still buying oil.
"It greatly weakens your negotiating position, and bargaining power, over Russia," the US President added.
"Anyway, I am ready to 'go' when you are. Just say when? I believe that this, plus NATO, as a group, placing 50% to 100% TARIFFS ON CHINA, to be fully withdrawn after teh WAR with Russia and Ukraine is ended, will also be of great help in ENDING this deadly, but RIDICULOUS, WAR."

Mr Trump said China had a "strong control, and even grip" over Russia and the "powerful Tariffs" would break that grip.
"This is not TRUMP'S WAR," he declared.
Instead, Potus added "it would never have started if I was President".
He said it was "Biden's and Zelenskyy's WAR".

Mr Trump said it was "crazy" that 7,118 had died "last week, alone".
"If NATO does as I say, the WAR will end quickly, and all of those lives will be saved," he said.
"If not, you are just wasting my time, and the time, energy, and money of the United States."
The conflict has intensified recently after Polish and allied forces shot down Russian droves over Nato airspace.
Poland's Prime Minister Donald Tusk said it was "the closest we have been to open conflict since World War Two".
Nato countries have promised to move more troops to the bloc's eastern front as the tensions continue to rise.
Ukraine remains a non-member of Nato, however, Britain and other Nato members have been supportive of the country since the full-scale invasion by Russia in 2022.
With Poland being a Nato member, it is protected by the Article 5 agreement.
It means any attack on a member state is deemed an attack on all.
If a member invokes the clause, the whole of the alliance, including the UK, US, France and Germany would be obliged to join the conflict.
