Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that some European countries also have long-range weapons, including cruise missiles. Tomahawk Ukraine has already started talking to these countries about these missiles. The head of state said this during speech at the European Council meeting.

"We should perceive our actions not only as defense, although that is the main goal. We also need to shape our policy in such a way as to stop the spread or repetition of Russia's destructive tactics - in Europe or elsewhere. Therefore, when we talk about long-range weapons, for example, for Ukraine, we mean that the Putin regime must feel the real consequences of this war," Zelensky said.

In this regard, the head of state called on European leaders to support everything that will help Ukraine obtain such opportunities, because"this really has a significant impact on Russia."

"And these long-range weapons are not only in the US - they are also in some European countries, in particular, Tomahawks. We are already talking with countries that can help," Zelenskyy emphasized.

The President of Ukraine drew attention to how nervous Russian dictator Vladimir Putin became when the topic of"Tomahawks" was raised.

As Zelenskyy argues, Putin understands that"long-range weapons can really change the course of war."

"You never know what's going to happen in war and peace. So we'll be talking about Tomahawks, and we'd prefer that they didn't need Tomahawks. Frankly, we'd prefer that the war was over," the US president said.

According to media reports, Trump did not promise to provide Ukraine with these missiles , but this issue is still off the agenda. In particular, expert from the Center for Strategic and International Studies Tom Karako emphasized that the problem is that Ukraine cannot launch these missiles on its own, but if the US agrees to supply them to Ukraine, the weapons will be transferred together with the launchers.
