U.S. President Donald Trump has said he is not currently considering providing Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine, Orda.kz reports.
Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump explained that he might change his position later, but as of now, “the issue is not being considered.”
Last week, on October 31, CNN, citing sources, reported that the Pentagon had authorized the White House to supply Ukraine with Tomahawk cruise missiles, concluding that doing so would not affect U.S. defense capabilities.
However, the outlet emphasized that the final decision remained with Trump.
Earlier, in July, The Washington Post wrote that Trump was considering the possibility of sending Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine. Modern versions of the missile have a range of more than 1,600 kilometers, theoretically allowing them to strike targets in Moscow and St. Petersburg.
