Russia says awaiting ‘clearer statements’ on Tomahawks
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Russia is waiting for clarity from the US about the possible supply of Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine.
US President said on Monday that he would want to know what Ukraine planned to do with such weapons before sending them, because he did not want to escalate the war. However, he also said that he had “sort of made a decision” on the matter.
Asked about the comments, Peskov said: “We understand that we need to wait, probably, for clearer statements, if any come.”
Peskov also said that Tomahawk missiles “could also be nuclear capable,” and so said that providing them would be “truly a serious round of escalation.”
Ukraine is not a nuclear power, although three NATO members (the US, the UK and France) are.
