JD Vance says U.S. "looking at" selling Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine.
The White House is weighing Ukraine's request for long-range Tomahawk missiles to defend the country against Russian forces, Vice President JD Vance said Sunday.
The U.S.-made Tomahawk missile has a range of about 1,500 miles, which would place Moscow well within the range of Kyiv should the Ukrainian government obtain them.
On Monday, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov implied that the U.S. was directly interfering in the war between Russian and Ukraine. "Moscow has heard Washington's statements about possible Tomahawk deliveries to Ukraine and is carefully analyzing them," Peskov said at a news conference. "It is important to understand who will be directing and launching the Tomahawk missiles from Ukrainian territory — the Americans or the Ukrainians themselves."
Speaking to Fox News later on Sunday, U.S. Special Envoy to Ukraine Keith Kellogg said "there are no such things as sanctuaries" in war and that Ukraine should have the ability to conduct long-range strikes on Russia.

The 180 by Vance is head-spinning, to say the least.
