Tensions Rise Over Potential Tomahawk Missile Sales to Ukraine

The Kremlin has maintained its silence in the wake of U.S. President Donald Trump's repeated suggestion that Washington might approve the sale of Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov refrained from offering any new insights on the contentious issue on Monday.

Peskov reiterated Moscow's stance, underscoring that deploying such weapons would necessitate direct U.S. involvement, thereby escalating tensions between the two nations.

In a related development, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev issued a warning, claiming that the provision of these missiles could lead to negative outcomes not only for Trump but for all parties involved, highlighting the potentially fraught nature of this international development.
