Trump is considering providing Ukraine with long -range missiles, Vans says

US Vice President JD Vance said: The United States is studying a request from Ukraine for long -range Tomahawk missiles.

However, Vans added that President Donald Trump will make the “final decision” in this regard.

Kiev has always called on its Western partners to provide it with weapons that could reach the major Russian cities away from the front line, on the pretext that it would help Ukraine to weaken the military industry in Russia seriously and end the war.

“If the cost of continuing the war for Moscow is very high, it will be forced to start peace talks,” Deputy Defense Minister Ivan Havereliok told the BBC.

Dmitry Peskov, a spokesman for Carmeen, has held a suggestion of Vans, saying that “there is no occurrence that could change the situation in the introduction of the Kiev regime.”

“Whether it is Tomahax or other missiles, they will not be able to change dynamism,” he added.

Tomahawk missiles have a group of 2500 km (1500 miles), which would put Moscow on hand to Ukraine.

While Vans remained contradictory about Ukraine’s request for Thomas in his remarks on Sunday, the American special envoy to Ukraine, Keith Keel, indicated that Trump had already authorized strikes in Russian territory.

He was asked to Fox News if Washington allowed Kyiv to carry out long -term strikes inside Russia in specific cases, Kellogg said: “The answer is yes, use the ability to reach depth, there are no things like sanctuaries.”

Vans and Alag’s comments coincide with changing the recent American administration’s tone regarding the war.

After expressing repeatedly doubts that Ukraine could continue to keep it against Russia, Trump said last week that Kiev could “win all Ukraine in its original form” – a surprising transformation until Voludimir Zelinski in Ukraine.

Trump is known to have been angry at the willingness of Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss ending the war in exchange for the fact that Moscow’s continuous bombing of Ukraine cities.

Sunday, A huge blow of 12 hours included hundreds of drones and about 50 missiles Four people were left dead in Kyiv and at least 70.

Havreliok told Ukraine that the BBC Russia would increase the intensity and intensity of its air attacks.

To protect its sky from ballistic missiles, KYIV has requested its Western partners at least 10 units of superficial defense systems to the national atmosphere that can discover and intercept next missiles.

When asked whether the Patriot systems that Trump promised during the summer were, Havreliok refused to be attracted to details, but she said that there was “some movement in this direction.”

The more drones and missiles by Russia, the more difficult it is for Ukraine to intercede.

Earlier this month, Moscow launched a record number of more than 800 drones and missiles-the highest since the beginning of the full invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

Inevitably, during such large -scale attacks, the low interception rate.

Of the hundreds of drones used in Sunday’s attack, 31 managed to reach its targets. According to President Zellinski, the majority was residential buildings and civilian facilities such as Kiev’s Heart Center.

Havreliock said that air attacks are more frequent and intense, more dangerous because Moscow uses new and more advanced drones to penetrate air defense systems in Ukraine.

He explained that when Iranian drones were used for the first time in 2023, “it was easy to disturb using our electronic warfare systems.”

“Today, they use 16 channels to pass through our jamming areas.”

Havryliuk also believes that they will be a way for Ukraine to stop Russian drones before they arrive in the European Union.

“The strengthening of our air defense system is an investment in the entire security of Europe,” he said. Referring to The last incursion of Russian drones into the Polish air field.

He added that he would disrupt “Putin’s plans to constantly intimidate Europe.”

Earlier this year, the Trump administration agreed to a new mechanism that believes that European allies are buying US -made US -made weapons. So far, many European countries and Canada have pledged collectively with two million dollars (1.5 billion pounds).

Havreliock said that some of the weapons purchased under the plan have already reached Ukraine, the operation is slower than before.

Time is a valuable commodity in Ukraine, and in the past three and a half years of the war, Kiev has developed a prosperous defense industry, which greatly increased its production of drones, artillery shells, artillery systems and armored vehicles.

Havreliok said that Ukraine now produces nearly 100 % of the FPVs that it needs and up to 40 % of the confrontation line request for other weapons.

On Monday, Zelinski said that Ukraine will continue to focus on locally produced drones and long -range missiles.

But so that he can increase weapons production, KYIV will remain largely dependent on its allies to provide the air defense systems it needs.

Ukraine hopes to help better protect its cities with air defense systems as well as long -term weapons capable of achieving Russian goals in bringing Moscow to the negotiating table.

“Only with our partners we can stop Russian terrorism in the sky,” said Havreliock.
