“Irresponsible position” – the Kremlin on allowing Ukraine to use ATACMS and Storm Shadow in the Russian Federation

The Kremlin considers the position of US President Joe Biden’s administration “irresponsible”, which, according to media reports, allowed Ukraine to strike Russia with long-range missiles. This was stated by the spokesman of the President of the Russian Federation, Dmytro Peskov, at a briefing on November 21, the Russian agency “Interfax” reports. “This is a very irresponsible position taken by the outgoing US administration. They continue to add fuel to the fire of this conflict, preventing at least some dynamics towards its conclusion, while using Ukraine as a tool in their hands in their war with the Russian Federation,” said Peskov. The Kremlin representative was also asked whether Russia had confirmation that a Storm Shadow missile was used to strike the Kursk region on November 20. Peskov replied that he would not like to comment on the topic “which is the prerogative of our military, the military department.” The Guardian, Bloomberg, BBC News and other media, citing sources, reported that on November 20, Ukraine used British long-range Storm Shadow missiles for the first time to strike targets on the territory of Russia. Missile fragments were found in the village of Maryino, Kursk Region. The Ministry of Defense of Russia reported that on the night of November 19, the Armed Forces struck a military facility in the Bryansk region with six long-range ATACMS missiles. Shortly before that, it became known that the administration of Joe Biden allowed Ukraine to use these missiles with a target on the territory of Russia. In addition, according to The Times, high-ranking sources in the British government said that the US restrictions on the use of Storm Shadow missiles by Ukraine to strike Russia have been lifted. ā€, ā€” write: www.radiosvoboda.org
