The US has provided long-range ATACMS missiles to Ukraine, escalating tensions just two months before President Biden's term ends. This decision has divided the West: France and Poland support it, while Germany opposes it.
Mike Waltz, the nominated National Security Advisor, emphasized the need for peace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia. A spokesperson for Trump stated that he is the only one who can end the war.
Russia has warned that this move brings the situation closer to the risk of World War 3. Russian leaders have pledged to respond quickly, while the West continues to debate how to handle the prolonged conflict.
