President Trump said Sunday that he may send Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine if Russia doesn’t settle its ongoing war with the country.

Speaking to reporters on Air Force One, the president said he may speak to Russian President Vladimir Putin before sending Ukraine the missiles, which can strike targets from over 1,000 miles away.

“I may say that the Tomahawk is an incredible weapon, very offensive weapon. And honestly, Russia does not need that,” Trump said on what he would tell Putin.

Trump also spoke with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Sunday. Zelensky told Fox News after their conversation that his country needs “long distance capabilities” and he and Trump are “working” on getting tomahawk missiles to Ukraine.  

Such a move would allow Ukraine to strike further into Russia. A Russian lawmaker said last week that if the Trump administration supplies Tomahawks to Ukraine, the country will shoot them down, bomb their sites and retaliate against the U.S., according to Reuters.

The war, which began with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, approaches the four-year mark — despite the Trump administration’s attempts to broker a ceasefire. Overnight Saturday, Russia attacked Ukraine’s power grid, resulting in two injured, according to the Associated Press

Zelensky said on X Sunday that Moscow has launched over 3,100 drones, 1,360 glide bombs and 92 missiles. He also said that an aerial bomb killing a child in a church in Kostiantynivka on Saturday.

After Israel and Hamas agreed to phase one of Trump administration peace proposal, Zelensky and Putin praised Trump in recent days. The former said Saturday on the social platform X that “surely other wars can be stopped as well,” while Putin said Trump is “doing a lot to resolve such complex crises” at a summit of former Soviet Union countries in Tajikistan. 

Last month, Trump said on his Truth Social platform that Ukraine could win the war and regain Russian-occupied territory. Zelensky announced last Thursday that a senior Ukrainian delegation, led by Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko, will visit the U.S. this week.
