“If Russia tries to expand the current front, Ukraine will be allowed to shoot at a greater distance,” said J. O’Brien.
According to J. O’Brien, Washington is currently observing “dramatic changes in Russia’s ability to move forward due to the loss of important facilities in the zone of fire.”
Strikes on Russian territory
Since the beginning of the full-scale aggression, the West has actively supported Ukraine with weapons, but a condition was set: the defense forces did not have the right to strike Russian territory with weapons provided by partners.
The situation changed with the beginning of the enemy offensive in the Kharkiv region and the intensification of shelling of the border regions. More and more allies began to reconsider their position on this issue.
Only at the end of May, when several NATO countries expressed support for strikes on Russian territory, the White House also gave Ukraine a “green light”, but with certain restrictions.
The US does not yet allow deep strikes against Russia, but Ukraine can attack Russian troops, positions and launchers along its border.
