In general, if the United States sends Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine, it will not change its position on the battlefield, but it will also become a serious round of escalation, since we may be talking about nuclear weapons. This is how Dmitry Peskov, the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation, commented on the words of US President Donald Trump about his decision regarding the supply of these weapons to Kiev.

- This will not be able to change the situation on the fronts for the Kiev regime. But it is important to realize that, apart from the various nuances, we are talking about missiles that can be nuclear-powered. Therefore, this is a really serious round of escalation," the Kremlin spokesman stressed.
