Trump Criticizes Ukraine's Use of U.S. Long-Range Missiles Against Russia, Citing Conflict Escalation
Dec 12, 2024, 01:38 PM
U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has voiced strong opposition to Ukraine's use of American-made long-range missiles to strike deep inside Russian territory. In an interview with Time magazine, Trump criticized the decision as a 'very big mistake' and a 'foolish decision,' arguing that such actions only escalate the conflict. He expressed concerns over the potential for further escalation and suggested that the U.S. should use its assistance to Ukraine as leverage in negotiations to end the conflict. This stance comes amidst reports that the U.S., UK, and France have granted Ukraine permission to use long-range missiles against Russian targets, prompting Russia to revise its nuclear doctrine.
