According to Ukrainian President, the issue regarding Tomahawks was confidential information between Ukraine and the US.

"How should we interpret these reports? It seems this means there is nothing confidential between partners," Zelenskyy said.

"When many countries began supporting the victory plan, you can see what's happening in the media now—they said that Ukraine wants or wanted to receive many missiles, such as Tomahawks and others," he stated.

Previously on October 29, The New York Times reported that in one of the classified sections of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's Victory Plan, within the block on a comprehensive non-nuclear strategic deterrence package, there is a request for Tomahawk missiles with a range of 2,400 kilometers to be provided to Ukraine.

In a recent analysis, Defense Express highlights the necessity of employing Tomahawk missiles to target twelve pivotal missile manufacturing plants in Russia, situated between 500 and 1500 kilometers from the Ukrainian border. This strategic move aims to paralyze Russia’s missile production capabilities and is aligned with Ukraine’s broader Victory Plan.
