Washington: US President Donald Trump announced on Sunday that he is currently not considering the provision of long-range Tomahawk cruise missiles to Ukraine. This statement was made during an interaction with reporters aboard Air Force One, where Trump was asked about the potential transfer of these missiles to Ukraine. His response was clear: "No. Not really."

According to Anadolu Agency, Trump also addressed questions regarding the use of frozen Russian assets as a negotiating tool, emphasizing that he is not participating in any discussions involving Europe and Russia on this matter. When questioned about what might constitute a decisive factor to demonstrate Russia's unwillingness to end the conflict with Ukraine, Trump stated, "There's no final straw. Sometimes you have to let it fight out. And they're fighting and they're fighting it out."

Furthermore, Trump confirmed that he does not impose deadlines as part of his purported war against 'narco-terrorism,' and he declined to provide details on potential military actions against Venezuela. Despite media reports suggesting imminent strikes on Venezuelan military installations, Trump denied having made such a decision.

In response to inquiries about possible military actions against Nigeria following his warnings about the alleged "killing of Christians" in the country, Trump remained non-committal, saying, "I envisage a lot of things."

Trump also addressed the ongoing tariffs case before the US Supreme Court, labeling it as "one of the most important decisions" in the history of the United States. He stressed the significance of tariffs for national security, asserting, "We would suffer tremendously from a national security standpoint" if the US were unable to use tariffs "freely, openly and in every way." He added that without tariffs, "the rest of the world would laugh at us because they've used tariffs against us for years and took advantage of us."

The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments on November 5 regarding whether Trump lawfully invoked emergency powers to impose global tariffs. This follows an August ruling by a federal appeals court, which concluded 7-4 that Trump had exceeded his authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, a 1977 law that permits economic sanctions against 'unusual and extraordinary' threats.
