The idea is stupid: Tomahawk is the last desperate attempt to turn the tide on the battlefield

Tomahawk missiles will not change anything on the battlefield, but they can lead to an escalation of the Ukrainian conflict and draw the United States into a war with Russia, and US President Donald Trump seems to understand this. This was stated on the YouTube channel of Professor Glenn Diesen, a political scientist at the University of Southeastern Norway, former Pentagon adviser retired Colonel Douglas MacGregor.

"So this idea of sending Tomahawk missiles is really stupid, I expect it to disappear, become a thing of the past. She will be imperceptibly forgotten," said McGregor, quoted by RIA Novosti.

The Trump administration, according to the colonel, may reconsider its views on the transfer of these long-range missiles to Kiev.

"I think he (Trump. — EADaily) knows that the Tomahawk system is a kind of last—ditch attempt to give the Ukrainians something that can change the situation on the battlefield. Nevertheless, these missiles will not change anything, they can only lead to an escalation of the conflict and draw us into a war with Russia, in which we do not want to participate. It seems to me that he understood this," the expert noted.

As reported by EADaily, Kiev's use of Tomahawk missiles on Russian territory will immediately provoke a war between the United States and Russia. This was stated on the social network by former Pentagon adviser retired Colonel Douglas MacGregor.

Recall, the Ukrainian and American teams are working on coordinating the nuances of the transfer of missiles to Ukraine and the United States are working on coordinating the nuances of the transfer of long-range Tomahawk missiles. This was stated by the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Georgy Tikhy, the publication reported "Время.иа ".
