The US president Donald Trump examines the possibility of sending long -range missiles Tomahawk to Ukrainesaying this will be a “new step of aggression” in her war with Russiaaccording to the BBC.

Asked to Air Force One if he would send tomhawks to Ukraine, Trump replied “we’ll see … maybe”.

US president’s statement comes after second phone conversation At the weekend with his Ukrainian counterpart Volodimir Zelenski, who is pushing for stronger military supplies to launch counterattacks against Russia.

Moscow has previously warned Washington not to supply a large range in Kiev, noting that this would be a significant escalation of the conflict and test the US -Russia relations.

It is noted that the Tomahawk rockets have a range of 2,500 km, which would put Moscow within the range of the Ukrainian forces.

Trump spoke to reporters during his flight to Israel, saying he would probably discuss with Russia the issue of the Tomahawk rockets requested by Ukraine.

‘I can tell them [στη Ρωσία] That if the war is not over, we can do it, it may not, but we can do it. ” ‘They want [η Ρωσία] to drop tomahawks in their direction? I don’t think, “the US president said.

Kiev has submitted multiple demands for large rockets, as it considers the possibility of attacking Russian cities away from the first lines of conflict.

In their telephone conversations, Zelenski and Trump discussed Ukraine’s intention to enhance its military capabilities, including the strengthening of air defense and long -range weapons.

Ukrainian cities, including Kiev, have repeatedly suffered heavy Russian attacks with drones and missiles. Russia has particularly targeted Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, causing power outages.

Last month, Trump’s special envoy to Ukraine, Keith Kogg, implied that the US president had approved the blows deeply on Russian territory.

Russia, which began its invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, downgraded the chances of Tomahawk rockets to change the course of the war. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said last month: “Whether it’s tomhawks or other rockets, they will not be able to change the momentum.”
