There was a slight glimmer of hope last week for Ukraine, that after months of pleas to Washington, it may have begun to move the strategic needle in favor of allowing attacks deep inside Russia using U.S.-made weapons.
Now, the United States will allow Ukraine to use its weapons to launch counter-attack batteries a short distance across the border.
When asked about geographic restrictions, they will be suspended by US President Joe Biden. Biden On the third day, he told reporters: “We are working now.”
Not on the same day as his Secretary of State Antony Blinken. counting Reports in London say British Foreign Secretary David Lammy will “watch this matter very closely and report back” during a joint visit to Kyiv this week.
Biden and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer will discuss the matter at the sixth meeting.
“We have constantly adjusted and adapted based on battlefield conditions,” Blinken said.
The chairman of the chamber's foreign relations committee, Michael McCall, was German.
He confirmed that Blinken will indeed inform Ukraine of the suspension of restrictions.
“From what I’ve seen and what I’ve been told, it seems like that’s the message they’re going to send, that we can use other borders,” McCall said. “It looked promising to me.”
The comments represent a shift in Washington’s position after months of insisting there would be no change in policy, something US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin reiterated at the sixth exhibition, saying the military’s tactical mistakes were similar. The 300-kilometer (185-mile) range that Ukraine intends to use. Inside Russia, there would be no change in the course of the war.
Russian President Vladimir Putin at the 5th exhibition cut If NATO countries allow attacks deep inside Russia, they will be actively involved in the war.
“It is not about allowing the Ukrainian regime to attack Russia with these weapons,” Putin told Russian state television. “There is a question of determining whether NATO countries are directly involved in a military conflict or not.”
“If this decision is made, it will mean nothing less than the direct involvement of two NATO countries, two US states and two European countries in the war in Ukraine,” he added. “This will be your direct involvement, and of course it will significantly change the essence and nature of the conflict.”
Western weapons have been used since the beginning of the war to destroy Russian ships, attack Russian artillery, shoot down Russian aircraft and destroy Russian tanks.
NATO countries also provide the Ukrainian armed forces with the coordinates of Alvos. But Putin said NATO officials would now set a schedule for air rotations of NATO-made missiles, which would represent an escalation.
Will Russia go nuclear?
Western self-containment was supported by half of Russia. using nuclear weaponsBut not on Sunday, CIA Director William Burns was flushing the streets of Moscow with cold water.
“Putin is brave. He will continue to make noise from time to time,” said Burns, sitting next to the head of British MI6 in London, at a media event. “We cannot be afraid of that noise of knowledge.”
He added that Russia has already passed the wartime stage when the use of tactical nuclear weapons was approved and abandoned.
“There was a moment in late 2022 when I thought there was a real risk of the potential use of tactical nuclear weapons,” Burns said. “I never thought … that we would have to be unnecessarily intimidated by ISSO.”
The Ukrainian counteroffensive recently recaptured at least 8,000 square kilometers (3,090 square miles) from Russian occupiers in the northern Kharkiv region in late August and early September 2022.
On November 9 of this year, as Ukraine advanced rapidly along the Dnieper River, threatening to cut off some 30,000 Russian troops on the immediate periphery, Russia regained 1,170 square kilometers (450 square miles) in the southern Kherson region. Russia also lost more than 700 square kilometers (270 square miles) in the eastern Donetsk region.
General Ben Hodges, the former commander of US forces in Europe, agreed with Burns’s endorsement. A Russian counter-invasion of Ukraine could only legitimately lead to a nuclear response according to Russian military doctrine, Al Jazeera reported, but that did not happen.
“Here we are now, two and a half years after the full-scale invasion[of Ukraine]and 10 years after the original invasion by Russia, and we have crossed a lot of red lines. Ukraine is inside Russia and Russia can’t do anything about it,” Hodges said. “So I hope that this will begin to erode some of the hyper-media in Casablanca and some other capitals.”
There is no place along the front line where a nuclear weapon could create a military advantage that Russia would appreciate, Hodges said, and the Russians “don’t have the properly trained and equipped forces to adequately reconnoiter a contaminated battlefield.”
I said, I said, I isolate Russia diplomatically and economically.
“The Chinese and the Indians are spreading this around in a way they don’t think they will. The consequences are catastrophic,” the US president said.
“It looks like the Russians are going to use a nuclear weapon that the country was ready to destroy. How do we deal with a major invasion or the threat of a major invasion by NATO. This has been going on for a long time.
“For the Russians, the benefit is to continue using Amyaka… Everything is for Western decision-makers.”
Russian diplomats have been issuing warnings in recent weeks that the United States is reconsidering its restrictive North American arms licenses.
“Or the West is asking for trouble,” Sergei LavrovThe Russian Foreign Minister recently spoke.
Why is the US reconsidering?
As Ukrainian forces continued to repel intensified Russian attacks in Ukraine's eastern Donetsk region, the Russian counteroffensive at Kursk in the fourth quarter appeared to be aimed at retaking part of the 1,300 square kilometres (500 square miles) that Ukraine had seized in a counterinvasion on 6 August.
Geo-tagged images indicate that professional Russian troops of the 51st Airborne Regiment are resuming their positions near Zhuravli and Snagost in a mechanized offensive.
Ukrainian cities, as well as troops, remain vulnerable to Russian waves of drone attacks and glider bombs launched from Russian fighter jets. From September 5 to 10, for example, Russia launched 266 drone and missile missions in areas of Ukraine along the front line.
Likewise in Sumy, which enjoyed a brief period of immunity from airstrikes after the Ukrainian counterinvasion, a nighttime attack that went wrong in the city of Sumy on Sunday killed two people and four days ago.
Two days ago, Russia dropped three bombs on the village of Krasnopilia in the Sumy region, killing a woman.
He does not believe that time is on Ukraine's side, as long as Russia has greater human resources and the ability to manufacture weapons.
As the war continues, the goal is to deepen Russia's ties with its allies, North Korea, Iran and China, which are contributing significantly to its war effort by acquiring sensitive new underwater, space and military technologies.
Russia would 'definitely' use Iranian ballistic missiles: Blinken
also Tempus Iran has sent 200 Fateh-360 short-range ballistic missiles to Russia via the Caspian Sea, a Ukrainian intelligence source was reported on Saturday.
Blinken confirmed this on the third day, saying that Russia was using Iranian missiles to strike about 100 kilometers (60 miles) from the launch site, freeing up its long-range missiles to launch attacks deeper into Ukraine.
“Russia is now receiving shipments of these ballistic missiles and will temporarily use them within weeks in Ukraine against Ukrainians,” Blinken said.
Iran agreed to supply goods to Russia in late 2022, and recent satellite imagery shows it has expanded its production capacity in two regions.
Armed Forces of Ukraine I also relate Or the use of North Korean ballistic missiles in Ukraine for several months.
In China, we also stepped up direct military technology assistance to Russia, and discussed the issue of the United States, a major change in what used to be the sale of obscure technologies that could be used for civilian purposes.
In a press briefing on the third day, US Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell said that China is now unequivocally selling military components to Russia.
“These are just parts of a very large effort by China to help maintain, build and diversify the different elements of the Russian war machine,” he was quoted as saying by Politico.
“These are not dual-use capabilities,” Campbell said. “Isso is essentially being applied directly to the Russian war machine.”
In return, Russia has been supplied with military technology from Punta, Campbell said. “It’s about underwater operations, aviation project activities, including stealth; that also includes capabilities in error capabilities.”
North Korea and Iran will also demand Russian know-how in ballistic missile and space technology.
“Russia is sharing technology that Iran is looking for… including nuclear issues, as well as some space information,” Blinken said. North Korea has asked for help in launching satellites into space.
Russia was upset by the allegation that it was in league with China to obtain war materials.
“We are building relations with China in a mutually beneficial manner, in full compliance with international law and will not extend a helping hand to the United States,” Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova told RTVI.
“We have heard many allegations about the supply of some kind of weapons to Russia, but they are groundless,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.
