Trump on Russian Energy Tariffs: 'Never Mentioned' Percentage

Trump on Russian Energy Tariffs: 'Never Mentioned' Percentage

Imagine countries buying and selling energy like oil and gas from each other.

Someone asked the U.S. President, Donald Trump, if the U.S. would charge countries a big tax, called a tariff, on those energy imports from Russia.

Trump said he never talked about a specific high percentage for that tax.

It's like a question about prices on stuff the U.S. buys from another country.
