U.S. president Donald Trump said on Sunday, October 12th, that Ukraine could receive Tomahawk cruise missiles if Russia does not end its invasion.
Trump has reportedly considered supplying the missiles to Kyiv through European allies after an August meeting with Putin in Alaska failed to produce a peace agreement.
Calling Tomahawks “a new step of aggression,” Trump questioned whether Russia wanted to face such weapons. Putin has previously warned that supplying them to Kyiv would be a major escalation.
Trump—who was en route to Israel and Egypt to discuss a Gaza peace plan—has long claimed he could quickly end the Ukraine war.
