Risk of direct US and Russian confrontation if Tom Hawk sends to Kiev – Mehr News Agency | Iranian and world news

According to RCO News Agency, the New York Times reported in a report citing recent statements by US President Donald Trump about the possibility of licensing Tom Hawk’s long -range missile to Ukraine, saying that the decision could make the United States closer to Russia’s confrontation.

Trump recently said that “Zelksky wants to have Tom Hawk. “We have many Tom Hawks.” According to the New York Times, this is exactly the message that Ukrainian President Walodimir Zelksky loves to hear while preparing to meet Friday with Trump at the White House.

However, the answer is, however, what Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned about, insisting that selling such a weapon to Ukraine means the “new stage”.

According to the New York Times, “Trump’s threats to supply Tom Hawk for Ukraine, whether or not to act on them, are a sign of his growing desperation against Putin; Someone who has refused to surrender or compromise despite Trump’s tough efforts on diplomacy! “

The US Department of War has developed a program to sell or transfer Tom Hawk to Ukraine in the case of Trump’s green light. But providing these weapons has great challenges, especially because Ukraine does not have a sea launcher or land launcher.

Ukraine needs an American military launcher called “Storm” to throw and shoot Tom Hawk; What happens, according to military officials, takes one step closer to direct confrontation with Russia. It is unclear how many Tom Hawk has in its arsenal, how Ukraine is able to maintain them safely and how limited the number of missiles will affect the war.
