“The President of Poland is convinced that this fundamentally changes the situation on the front line”, — write: www.radiosvoboda.org
“I welcomed this decision by President Joe Biden and our allies. I believe that Ukraine should have such defenses to push back the Russian army so that it is not so close to the front line, especially in a situation where the Russians invite their allies to participate in this war on their side – now there are North Korean soldiers there. , – the Polish publication RMF24 quotes Dudu.
The Polish president added that this fundamentally changes the situation on the front line and that it is “a very important, perhaps even a turning point in this war.”
Earlier, the head of the Polish Foreign Ministry, Radosław Sikorski, welcomed media reports about Ukraine’s permission to strike deep into Russia. He noted that the President of the United States, Joe Biden, by lifting restrictions on Ukraine’s use of Western missiles, “responded to Putin in understandable language.”
On the evening of November 17, US officials quoted by the media said that the US had authorized limited Ukrainian strikes in response to the deployment of North Korean forces on the battlefield in the Kursk region. US officials said the partial lifting of restrictions was intended to have a “specific and limited” effect on the battlefield and would not change the course of the war.
The French publication Le Figaro reported on November 17 that France and the United Kingdom followed the US in allowing the Ukrainian armed forces to use SCALP/Storm Shadow missiles to strike Russian territory, but later changed its report and deleted this information.
