Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said today that he had spoken with US President Donald Trump for the second time in two days about strengthening Ukraine's air defenses, resilience and long-range capabilities.
In a post on Iksu, Zelensky described the conversation as "very constructive" and said he would continue it.
"We covered all aspects of the current situation: from defending life in our country, to strengthening our capabilities in air defense, resilience, and long-range capabilities. We also discussed many details related to the energy sector. President Trump is well-informed about everything that is happening," Zelensky wrote.
The Kremlin said today that Russia is deeply concerned about the possibility of the United States delivering long-range Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine, warning that the war has reached a dramatic moment, with tensions escalating on all sides.
Trump said on Monday that before agreeing to deliver the Tomahawks, he would like to know what Ukraine plans to do with them, because he does not want to further escalate the war between Russia and Ukraine.
However, he added that he had "in a way already made a decision" about it.
Tomahawk missiles have a range of about 2.500 kilometers, meaning Ukraine could strike deep inside Russia, including Moscow.
According to a report by the US Congressional Research Service, some variants of the Tomahawk can also carry nuclear warheads.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said today that the issue is deeply concerning.
