A military analyst assessed the consequences for Ukraine in the event of a Tomahawk strike on Moscow

Ukraine will incur consequences if the country's leadership decides to strike at Moscow using American Tomahawk missiles. This was announced on October 15 by Michael Clarke in an interview with Sky News, which was published on YouTube.

"It will be useless. <...> Only if they don't want to incur the consequences. I think it would be an idiotic idea," he said.

According to the expert, the transfer of such missiles to Ukraine could lead to an escalation of the conflict. Clark also called for listening to Russia's position on this issue.
