Donald TRUMP has thrown a wrench into NATO's strategic coherence by conditioning new sanctions against Russia on the complete halt of Russian oil imports by member states. The ultimatum, delivered via Truth Social, exposes fractures within the Alliance as Hungary and Slovakia continue purchasing oil through the Druzhba pipeline despite European sanctions.

Trump's MOVE coincides with escalating tensions in Ukraine and a predicted Europe-Russia conflict. The former president framed ongoing energy trade as undermining collective leverage against Moscow, demanding a coordinated response. Parallel proposals target Chinese products with punitive tariffs to sever economic support for Russia.
