Biden has no plans in FRG to discuss lifting Kiev’s ban on strikes deep into Russia

US President Joe Biden has no plans to discuss lifting a ban on Ukraine from launching strikes by Western long-range weapons deep into Russian territory during a visit to Germany, a senior White House official told a briefing.

‘I don’t have any announcements on policy changes as of today,’ RIA Novosti quoted him as saying in response to a related question.

At the same time, the situation in Ukraine will be on the agenda during Biden’s visit to Germany, the White House added.

Earlier in the Pentagon said that the restrictions on strikes of the AFU by Western missiles deep into the territory of Russia will not be removed because of the risk of escalation.

The Russian Foreign Ministry, for its part, warned that allowing Kiev to strike deep into Russia would change the nature of the conflict.
