US Has Not Approved Long-Range Missile Strikes by Ukraine, Trump Says

President Donald Trump on Wednesday refuted a news report that the United States had allegedly approved the use of long-range missiles by Ukraine to strike deep into Russia.

In a post on social media, the president said: “The Wall Street Journal story on the U.S.A.’s approval of Ukraine being allowed to use long range missiles deep into Russia is fake news! The U.S. has nothing to do with those missiles, wherever they may come from, or what Ukraine does with them!”
