“Representatives of the authorities say that for the first time Trump's administration will support Ukrainian attacks with long -range rockets for energy purposes deeply on Russia,” writes the American newspaper.
And this can be just the beginning – the US authorities are inclined to the supply of Tomahawk and Barracuda maneuvering missiles and other American ground and air missiles. Then Ukraine could hit Russia deeply with American weapons.

The Kremlin went too far in his provocations. Washington's goal is clear: paralyzing Putin's war machine, cutting off the inflow of money to the budget and fuel for Russians and troops fighting on the front.
The CIA and Pentagon, according to the reports of “The Wall Street Journal”, are to help identify goals in Russia. Ukraine could seriously hit Putin's energy supply – deeper, more strongly and more precise than ever before. In this way, Kyiv will be able to defend himself against Putin's invasion.
However, the Kremlin's situation may get worse. Until now, the United States has blocked the transfer of Tomahawk missiles – now there may be a change in the course. Trump is to be allegedly frustrated by the failure of peace conversations with Vladimir Putin.
Now the US President may focus on the pressure of firepower. Ukraine could destroy command positions, ammunition warehouses and weapons factory in Russia.
– Tomahawk can fly up to 2,000 500 km. It is a long -range weapon, which – if provided – would allow Ukraine destroy the strengthened goals deeply in Russia itself – says Carlo Masala's security expert in an interview with “Bild”, referring to command stations, ammunition warehouses and key factories (including drones producing) – i.e. objects that can be covered by air defense.

The key question is: how many such Trump shells will give Ukrainians?
“If it was a large number, it would of course help Ukraine destroy in Russia objects that she needs to continue the war,” says Masala, a professor of international policy at the Bundeswehr University in Munich.

According to the expert, it is also possible that Trump would allow Europeans to buy maneuvering missiles to transfer them to Ukraine.
The Russians react with irritation
During the rule of US former US president, Joe Biden, the United States did not agree to the supply of Tomahawk missiles. The reason is the same as in the case of German Taurus missiles. Let's remind: Friedrich Merz, before he became a chancellor, announced the supply of this weapon – unlike Olaf Scholz, who was always an opponent of this solution.
– It was feared that Russia would react with an escalation, which could also affect NATO members. And in the case of Tomahawk missiles, the purpose is needed. To hit the target, American support is needed – says Masala in an interview with “Bild”.
Would the supply of Tomahawk missiles be decisive for the war? Masala does not see any “breakthrough event”. However, the announcement of the delivery makes the Russians very nervous. Spokesman Putin Dmitry Pieskow reacted, announcing Russia's “appropriate” reaction if Washington provided Ukraine maneuvering missiles.
“Can they be fired only by Ukrainians or will the American army do it?” Pieskov asked. The statement of the Kremlin spokesman indicates that the Russians are afraid of the more direct participation of Americans in the war.
