Donald Trump Jr., the eldest son of US President-elect Donald Trump, has called out the Democrats over recent reports that outgoing President Joe Biden has authorized Ukraine to utilize American-made long-range missiles for attacks deep inside Russian territory.
Trump Jr., who actively campaigned with his father during the 2024 presidential election and has been involved in selecting members for his future cabinet, expressed his frustrations candidly on social media.
“The Military Industrial Complex seems to want to make sure they get World War 3 going before my father has a chance to create peace and save lives,” he wrote on X on Sunday. “Gotta lock in those $Trillions. Life be damned!!! Imbeciles!”
The Biden administration had previously limited the use of ATACMS missiles by Ukraine due to concerns over potential Russian retaliation. However, reports from various news outlets indicate that the White House has decided to change this policy. As of now, neither the White House nor the Pentagon has provided comment on the situation.
This reported decision is largely viewed as a final effort to enhance Ukraine's military capabilities ahead of Trump's inauguration on January 20. During his re-election campaign, Trump expressed skepticism about the need for unconditional support to Ukraine and pledged to address the conflict through diplomatic solutions. His anticipated return to the White House has led to concerns among Democrats, as well as officials in Ukraine and the European Union, about the possibility that the new administration could pull back support for Ukraine.
Moscow has consistently warned that the use of Western weapons in Russian territory would signify NATO's direct involvement in the conflict. President Vladimir Putin has previously cautioned that Russia will take “appropriate decisions in response to the threats.”
