"President Donald Trump added another chapter to his ongoing feud with the Wall Street Journal on Wednesday, blasting the paper for a FAKE NEWS report that the Trump Administration lifted a key restriction on Ukraine, allowing it to use long-range missiles against Russia. The president's denial came less than 90 minutes after the WSJ's report was published. 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!"
"Trump posted on Truth Social. The U.S. has nothing to do with those missiles, wherever they may come from, or what Ukraine does with them! WSJ reported the green light from Trump would allow Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to step up attacks on targets inside Russia and put added pressure on Russian dictator Vladimir Putin to end the war. The missiles, the WSJ reported, were given to Ukraine by its Western allies."
A claim circulated that the U.S. lifted a restriction allowing Ukraine to use long-range missiles against Russia. Donald Trump denied the claim within 90 minutes and labeled it FAKE NEWS on Truth Social. The claim said the authorization would enable Volodymyr Zelensky to increase attacks inside Russia and pressure Vladimir Putin, and that the missiles were supplied by Western allies. The claim added that authority to support such attacks shifted from Pentagon official Pete Hegseth to U.S. European commander Gen. Alexus Grynkewich. Trump earlier suggested providing Tomahawk missiles but later walked back the idea. Trump is suing the Wall Street Journal for $10 billion over an alleged 2003 letter to Jeffrey Epstein and denies the words attributed to him.
