Trump refused to transfer Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine and suggested that Kyiv and Moscow keep fighting

U.S. President Donald Trump once again refused to provide Ukraine with Tomahawk missiles and suggested that Kyiv and Moscow “keep fighting for a while.”

Trump made the remarks while speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One.

A journalist asked whether the White House might transfer the missiles to Ukraine.

“No — at least not right now. Yes, I can change my position, but at the moment — no,” the U.S. president replied.

He was also asked what might constitute a “final straw” for the United States in Russia’s actions toward Ukraine.

“There is no final straw. Sometimes you just have to let events play out. They’re fighting — and fighting fiercely. It’s a tough war for Putin — a lot of dead soldiers, maybe around a million. That’s a huge number. And it’s tough for Ukraine too. For both sides. Sometimes you have to let the situation reach its limit so everyone can understand it themselves,” Trump said.
