The current presidentUSA Joe Biden passed good solution”, allowing Ukraine to use American a weapon for striking deeply of Russia, stated president Emmanuel Macron of France.

“Russia is the only state that decided on escalation (…) It was this gap that led to the US decision,” the French president told reporters on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Rio de Janeiro.

Earlier in 2024, Macron said he was in favor of allowing Ukraine to strike military targets on Russian territory, given that Moscow was taking advantage of Western restrictions on the use of missiles provided to Kyiv.

At therefore, the army of the aggressor country of the Russian Federation has been using foreign-made weapons for a long time (for example, Iranian Shahed kamikaze drones), for attacks on Ukraine.

The lifting of restrictions for Ukraine on ATACMS strikes deep into the Russian Federation is the main thing

On November 17, it became known that the Biden administration lifted the restrictions for Ukraine to strike Russia with long-range missiles. As reported in the NYT, the weapons are likely to be used first against Russian and North Korean troops to protect Ukrainian forces in the Kursk region of the Russian Federation.

It was also claimed that the authorization to use ATACMS was adopted in response to Russia’s decision to involve North Korean troops in the war against Ukraine.

The Reuters agency, citing sources, reported that Ukraine plans to carry out the first long-range attacks in the coming days. Journalist sources added that the first strikes would likely be delivered by ATACMS missiles, which have a range of up to 190 miles. (306 km).

At the same time, the French Le Figaro wrote that Great Britain and France also allowed Ukraine to strike deep into Russian territory with SCALP/Storm Shadow missiles, but then changed the text and removed this information from the material.

On November 18, The Washington Post, citing one of the high-ranking American officials, reported that US President Joe Biden’s permission to lift restrictions on Ukraine’s use of Western weapons for strikes deep into the Russian Federation is partly aimed at preventing North Korea from sending additional troops to help the Russians.
