Trump suggests he may cancel Biden's authorization for Ukraine to strike Russia with American weapons

On Monday, US President-elect Donald Trump  suggested that he might reverse Joe Biden's recent decision to allow Ukrainian troops to use US long-range weapons to strike Russian territory. UNN reports this with reference to The Guardian. 

Trump called Biden's decision “stupid.” When asked whether he would consider reversing the decision, Trump replied: “Maybe. I think it was very stupid.” 

The White House responded by noting that the decision was made after several months of discussions that began before last month's election. White House National Security Advisor John Kirby said: “I can assure you that in the conversations that we've had with them since the election and at various levels, we've explained to them what's behind this, why we're doing this.
