Trump named the condition for transferring Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine: Russia’s evasion of peace negotiations.

The President of the United States, Donald Trump, is considering the possibility of providing Ukraine with Tomahawk cruise missiles in case Russia avoids peaceful dialogue. This statement was made aboard Air Force One during a flight to Israel.

Discussion with Zelensky

Trump reported that he discussed this topic with Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky over the weekend. The delivery of missiles, according to him, would be a “new step of aggression.”

The President emphasized that the transfer of Tomahawks to Ukraine could lead to escalation. “Frankly, I might have to talk to Russia about the Tomahawks,” he noted, adding that this could become a subject of discussion with Vladimir Putin.

Transfer Mechanism

Washington plans to implement the missiles to NATO allies, who can then transfer them to Ukraine. This step is seen as a tool to pressure the Kremlin.

Potential Negotiations

Trump expressed readiness to discuss the situation with Putin. “If this war is not resolved, I will send them Tomahawks,” he stated, emphasizing the offensive nature of the weapon.

This initiative highlights the complexity of international relations and the need for a diplomatic approach. The question remains open, and further steps will depend on the development of events.
