However, Vance, President Donald Trump’ın “the final determination” on the issue, he added.
Kiev for a long time, Western partners, Ukraine’nın Russia’s military industry seriously weakening and ending the war, arguing that they will help to end the war, the Great Russian cities to offer weapons that can hit away from the front.
“If the cost of continuing the war for Moscow is very high for Moscow, he will have to start peace talks,” Deputy Minister of Defense Ivan Havryliuk said. He said.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov played Vance’s suggestion and said, “It is not a panacea for the Kiev regime to change the situation at the front.”
“Whether Tomahawks or other missiles, they will not be able to change dynamics,” he added.
Tomahawk missiles have 2,500 km (1,550 miles), which will reach Moscow Ukraine.
In a statement on Sunday, Vance was undecided about Ukraine’s Tomahawks request, while the US Special Ambassador Keith Kellogg claimed that Trump allowed in -depth strikes to the Russian territory.
When FOX News was asked whether Washington allowed Kiev to make long -range strikes in Russia in certain cases, Kellogg said: “Answer yes, use the ability to hit deeply, there is nothing like the sacred areas.”
The comments of Vance and Kellogg are matching the US administration’s last ton change on war.
After repeatedly expressing the skepticism that Ukraine could continue to have itself against Russia, Trump said that “Ukraine can recover Ukraine in its original form”
Trump is known to be willing to argue against the reality of the persistent bombings of Moscow’s Ukraine cities against the debate to end the war of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Sunday, A large 12 -hour strike with hundreds of drones and about 50 missiles Four people were killed in Kiev and at least 70 people were injured.
Ukraine’s Havryliuk said that Russia will only increase the intensity and severity of Air strikes.
Ukrainian Ministry of DefenseIn order to protect the sky from ballistic missiles, Kiev asked the Western partners from the Patriot surface of at least 10 units of Patriot surface, which could detect and cut approaching missiles.
When Trump asked if the patriotic systems promised during the summer were asked, Havryliuk refused to be drawn to details, but he said that it was “a little movement in this direction.”
The more drones and missiles are expelled by Russia, the harder it would be for Ukraine to cut them.
At the beginning of this month, Moscow scored more than 800 drones and missile records since the beginning of the full -scale occupation of Ukraine in February 2022.
Inevitably, during such large -scale attacks, the intervention rate decreases.
31 out of hundreds of drones used in Sunday’s attack managed to achieve their targets. According to President Zelensky, the majority were residential buildings and civil facilities such as the Cardiology Center in Kiev.
Havryliuk, Moscow’s Ukraine’s air defense systems to break new and developed drones to break more frequent and intense, as well as air strikes become more dangerous.
When Iran -made Shahed Drones were used for the first time in 2023, “it was easy to get stuck using our electronic war systems.”
“Today, they use 16 -channel antenna to pass through our jam zones.”
Havryliuk also believes that Ukraine will stop Russian drones before they reach EU countries.
“Strengthening our air defense system is an investment in the security of all Europe.
Authority, “Putin’in constantly scare the plans to intimidate Europe”, he added.
Earlier this year, the Trump administration approved a new mechanism seeing that European allies bought US weapons for Ukraine. So far, several European countries and Canada have promised $ 2 billion (£ 1.5 billion) in bulk.
Havryliuk said that some of the weapons purchased under the plan have already come to Ukraine, but the process was slower than before.
Time is a valuable commodity in Ukraine, and in the last three and a half years, it has developed a defense industry that has developed the last three and a half years of the war and has significantly increased the production of drones, artillery shells, artillery systems and armored vehicles.
Havryliuk said that Ukraine’s first person’s opinion (FPV) drones needed, and the front line of the front line produced 40% of its demand for other weapons.
On Monday, Zelensky said that Ukraine will continue to focus on domestic drones and missiles with long -range skills.
However, until it accelerates weapons production, Kiev will largely depend on its allies to provide the air defense systems it needs.
Ukraine hopes that better preservation of cities with air defense systems and the combination of long -range weapons that can achieve Russian goals will help to bring Moscow to the negotiation table.
“We can stop Russian terror in the sky only with our partners.” He said.
