Biden: Ukraine can use U.S. weapons for strikes deep into Russia
The Biden administration changes its tune when it comes to Ukraine’s use of American-made weapons.
In a reversal of policy, the administration will allow Ukraine to use long-range missiles supplied by the U-S for military strikes deeper inside Russia. U-S officials say the change comes largely in response to Russia’s deployment of North Korean ground troops. For months, Ukrainian President Zelensky has asked the Biden administration to allow Ukraine’s military to use U-S weapons to hit Russian military targets far from its border. Russian lawmakers warned the decision could lead to a world war.
