Zelenskyy seeks long-range Tomahawk missiles from Trump as Russia intensifies attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, causing widespread blackouts, officials said.

  • Trump's recent Middle East diplomacy has made him more bullish, as Zelenskyy told NBC shortly after the visit that Tomahawk missiles pose a genuine concern for Putin.
