Trump has spoken out about strikes deep into Russia

Newly elected US President Donald Trump opposes Ukraine striking deep into Russia with US long-range weapons. About it writes Time.

I strongly disagree with sending missiles hundreds of miles deep into Russian territory. Why are we doing this? We are only making this war worse and worsening it," Trump told reporters.

At the same time, he indicated that he is keen for the war to end sooner. And when asked whether or not he would stop helping Ukraine, Trump said he was using U.S. support for Ukraine as leverage against Russia in negotiations to end the war.

I want to reach an agreement, and this does not mean quitting," he emphasised.

Recall, US President Joe Biden at the very end of his term did what Kiev had been asking him for many months - lifted the ban on strikes with ballistic tactical missiles ATACMS on the territory of Russia. Before that, Washington explained its reluctance to authorise strikes with its missiles on Russian territory by the fact that it feared escalation.
