Caption: Trump Weighs Sending Tomahawk Missiles to Ukraine, Raising Tensions with Russia. US President Donald Trump says he's considering sending Tomahawk long-range cruise missiles to Ukraine — a move he called "a new step of aggression" in the war with Russia. Speaking aboard Air Force One, Trump said, "We'll see… I may," when asked if the delivery would happen. The comments followed his second call in a week with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who's urging Washington to bolster Kyiv's long-range strike capabilities. The Tomahawk's 2,500-kilometre range would put Moscow well within reach of Ukrainian forces. Russia has repeatedly warned that such a move would sharply escalate the conflict and damage US-Russian relations. Trump said he may speak with Moscow directly, warning that "they don't want Tomahawks headed their way.” Kyiv continues to face relentless Russian airstrikes, especially on its energy grid. The Kremlin has downplayed the potential impact of Tomahawks, insisting they wouldn't alter the war's overall trajectory.
