Ukrinform
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed hope that U.S. President Donald Trump would provide Ukraine with long-range Tomahawk missiles.

Ukrinform reports this, citing an interview with NBC News.

According to Zelensky, during their meeting on October 17, Trump did not say “no” to supplying Tomahawk missiles, although he also did not give a definitive “yes.”

“It’s good that President Trump didn’t say ‘no,’ but for today, didn’t say ‘yes,’” the Ukrainian leader noted.

Zelensky also added that Russian President Vladimir Putin is “really afraid” that the U.S. could provide Ukraine with long-range missiles that would significantly impact the course of the war.
