US President Trump posted today (Beijing Time October 23): "The Wall Street Journal's report about the US approving Ukraine to use long-range missiles deep into Russia is pure fake news! Regardless of where these missiles come from, and how Ukraine uses them, the US has nothing to do with them!"
[Witty] Comment: Trump's post reveals his hesitation on the Tomahawk missile issue. When the wind blows, he quickly distances himself, calling the report fake news, eager to draw a line with possible conflict consequences. He knows well that approving Ukraine to use long-range missiles deep into Russia is like lighting a fire on a powder keg. He is afraid of offending Russia, yet does not want to completely abandon support for Ukraine to show his "position". This indecisive approach is a typical political opportunist, lacking the decisiveness and responsibility of a great power leader.
