WASHINGTON (Reuters) -President Donald Trump said on Sunday that he may tell Russian President Vladimir Putin that he could supply Ukraine with long-range Tomahawk missiles if the war is not settled.

Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One as he flew to Israel, Trump said he is looking to ensure Ukraine gets a fresh supply of weapons at the request of Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

"They'd like to have Tomahawks. That's a step up," Trump said.
