Axios: US handed Ukraine decision on strikes deep into Russia days ago

Washington informed Kiev about US President Joe Biden’s decision to authorise Ukraine’s use of long-range weapons for strikes on Russian territory about three days ago.


This is reported by the portal Axios with reference to a source.

According to him, the authorisation for Kiev to use ATACMS missiles applies only to the Kursk region, where the DPRK military is allegedly located.

According to the source, the U.S. intends by this decision to keep the DPRK from sending additional troops to Russia.

Earlier, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro called it insane to allow Ukraine to strike deep into Russian territory with long-range weapons.

The Le Figaro newspaper also wrote that the French and British authorities, following the USA, had authorised Ukrainian troops to use foreign long-range weapons in strikes against Russia.
