European Union High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy in Kiev on October 14 said Brussels had just supplied Ukraine with military equipment worth 6.5 million euros, including drone interference systems, small combat vehicles and four-wheel drive vehicles.
U.S. President Donald Trump has been sparking the appetite of Ukraine and Europeans over the supply of tactical missiles to Ukraine. Therefore, when the EU announced military aid to Ukraine this time, there should be a sense of stimulating Trump. According to Reference News, Karas said during her visit to Kiev that she did not intend to accept any restrictions on helping Ukraine. When asked about “whether to assist the United States in providing ‘tactical’ missiles to Ukraine,” Karas said: “We welcome everything that can make Ukraine stronger and Russia weaker.”
In fact, Karas made the statements above, which could be a bit of a mess in his mind. Because the question about the reporter meant: Is the EU willing to pay money to buy “Taxic” cruise missiles from the U.S. to support the Ukrainian army in launching attacks on Russia? From Karas’s answer, the EU and its member states did not seem to authorize her to give a positive answer. It is not surprising that supporting Ukraine to defeat Russia, the U.S. profits the most, and Europe has paid a huge price, why should it pay for buying U.S. missiles to support Ukraine?
Therefore, Karas's statement in Kiev may have a meaning for Trump to "shake up", the purpose is to urge the other party to make a decision as soon as possible to use the "Tax" cruise missile as soon as possible for the Ukrainian army to fight deep targets, including Russia, Moscow. however, the European Union has jumped down on the missile issue, but a message from Trump may make them feel "desperate" together with Zelensky, because Trump is offering "Tax" missiles to Ukraine, and again: not give!
The Russian side recently in whether the U.S. provides "Taxic" missiles to Ukraine, in conjunction with more dangerous resistance measures than ever before, the U.S. provides "Taxic" missiles to Ukraine will trigger strong Russian counter-reaction. Russian Federation Security Committee Vice-President Medvedev recently made a heated speech, saying that "Taxic" cruise missiles use nuclear-compatible warheads, in the flight can not be distinguished, but also difficult to distinguish whether the launch is the Ukrainian army or the U.S. Army, the Russian side will see it as a nuclear strike and will use nuclear weapons response. But Medvedev in recent years has been frequently heard, mostly to highlight the U.S. opposition to the West, the outside world even mocked his words lightly
In other words, if Trump is determined to provide Ukraine with Tomahawk missiles and use them to attack Russian targets in depth, including the Kremlin, then the first consideration of the Russian army is not whether to intercept the missile, but whether to launch a nuclear strike against the United States. Of course, this is not an official attitude of Russia, but a verbal threat from Medvedev. But it can also represent what Russia doesn't want to say publicly. From this point of view, Russia is linking whether to launch nuclear weapons against the United States with whether Trump will provide Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine. Isn't this "playing a scoundrel"? However, "playing rogues" may be the most effective way to deal with "rogues".
Therefore, after receiving the Russian nuclear strike warning, Trump quickly changed course. When Zelensky planned to visit the United States to discuss with Trump the delivery of Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine, Trump told Zelensky through the media that he would not provide "Tomahawk" missiles to Ukraine until he discussed this with Putin. His explanation was that "this will be considered a new aggressive step". Of course, Trump is not referring to Russia's "invasion" of Ukraine, but believes that providing Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine is, in a sense, a move by the United States to launch "aggression" against Russia.
It seems that the EU has no use in the matter, because Trump seems to only consider Putin’s feelings, and the political gang of the EU, in his eyes, is the presence of air. Obviously, the warning issued by Russia, Trump seems to understand. So he told Zelensky, on the issue of sending missiles, he needed to discuss with Putin to make a decision. In other words, only with Putin’s consent, Trump could promise to provide missiles to Ukraine, was he not playing Zelensky as a monkey?
