Trump expressed dissatisfaction that such a decision was made without his participation.

US President-elect  Donald Trump  has not ruled out the possibility of revoking permission for Ukraine to strike with Western weapons deep into Russian territory.

During a press conference, Trump  said that the Joe Biden administration should not have authorized strikes deep into Russia. “I don’t think they should have authorized missile strikes 300 km into Russia. I think that’s bad,” Trump said.

In addition, he believes that this decision dragged the DPRK into the war against Ukraine, although in fact, data on the transfer of North Korean soldiers appeared before the US authorized the strikes.

“This involved the North Koreans… and just a few weeks before I came into office. Why would they do this without asking me? Yes, I can (in response to whether he would reverse the decision),” he said.

  1. “I don’t think they should have authorized missile strikes 300 km into Russia. I think that’s bad,”

    Not as bad as Iranian drones attacking every corner of Ukraine.
