The U.S. Pentagon has approved the transfer of Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine, a move the White House says will leave American stocks intact, yet President Trump has not finalized the decision.
Pentagon Gives Green Light
CNN reports that the U.S. Pentagon notified the White House that sending Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine will not deplete American military reserves.
Military Stocks Remain Intact
The decision followed a military assessment showing the U.S. holds enough missiles to support Kyiv without weakening its own defense capabilities.
President Trump Abstains From Final Decision
Despite the assessment, President Donald Trump has not yet taken action, citing earlier discussions with President Zelensky that America would not give away assets essential for national defense.
