  • Russian President Vladimir Putin heavily criticized the US’s recent protectionist trade policies during a speech in St. Petersburg, Russia.
  • While Putin did not refer to President Donald Trump by name, the Russian president attacked recent tariffs and the increase in protectionism from the US.
  • “We do not need trade wars or even temporary trade truces. We need full-time trade peace,” Putin said.

Russian President Vladimir Putin took US President Donald Trump to task over a recent increase in trade barriers and an abandonment of the international trade order, all without saying his counterpart’s name.

In a speech at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, Putin disparaged recent trade protectionism from countries including the US and urged nations to recommit to free trade.
