"I think President Trump knows. I said to him yesterday what we need, one thing."
"By the way, we need it, but it doesn't mean that we will use it. Because if we will have it, I think it's additional pressure on Putin to sit and speak,"
"The Tomahawk, manufactured by RTX, has a much longer range than the missiles NATO has made available so far, flying up to 1,000 miles vs. around 190 miles for U.S.-made ATACMS. It's also much faster than Ukraine's drones, and packs a bigger punch."
Ukraine raised requests for Tomahawk long-range missiles with the United States and identified them as the weapon discussed in a meeting with a U.S. president. Sources confirmed the Tomahawk was the system Ukraine sought and that it was the only item a U.S. leader did not agree to offer to NATO countries on Ukraine's behalf. Ukrainian leadership said possessing the system could create diplomatic pressure on Russia and that conditions could be placed on its use. The Tomahawk can reach about 1,000 miles, far beyond ATACMS, and offers greater speed and destructive power than drones.
