[Regnum] Washington does not intend to supply Kiev with long-range JASSM missiles. This was stated by US President Donald Trump on July 15.
“No, we are not going to do that,” the American leader responded to a question from journalists.
Earlier, the British newspaper The Financial Times, citing sources, claimed that Trump discussed the possibility of transferring long-range ATACMS missiles to Ukraine in a telephone conversation with the head of the Kiev regime, Volodymyr Zelensky.
As reported by IA Regnum, on July 7, Trump announced the resumption of arms supplies to Ukraine. On July 14, he indicated that the volume of military aid that would be sent to Ukraine through European countries would amount to billions of dollars. In particular, the United States is considering the possibility of transferring 17 Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems to Ukraine. According to the American leader, the EU countries will pay for the additional weapons that the United States will send to Ukraine.
On July 14, the American Military Watch Magazine wrote that the United States will not be able to supply Ukraine with Patriot air defense systems in the near future due to an acute shortage of such systems in the American armed forces. According to an informed source of the publication, the US President's office is discussing the possibility of sending Ukraine long-range JASSM missiles to equip F-16 fighters.
