The possibility of the United States and England agreeing to Ukraine's use of long-range missiles to attack Russia/Moscow's warning to the West

Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - International Service: The Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee of the US House of Representatives said that US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken will tell the Kiev authorities during his visit to Ukraine that the permission to use long-range Atcoms missiles (ATACMS) ) to attack Russian territory.

 

"War Zone" news-analytical website reported by publishing this article: "Michael McCall, the chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee of the House of Representatives, told the Axios news-analytical website that he spoke with Blinken two days ago and he spoke with his counterpart (David Lemmy, Minister of Foreign Affairs) British Foreign Secretary) will go to Kiev from England to tell them that they will be allowed to attack Russia with Atcoms.

 

So far, the US government has prohibited Ukraine from using ATCOMS missiles to attack Russian territory. These missiles have a range of about 200 miles. Therefore, England has not allowed Ukraine to use the cruise missiles donated by "Storm Shedo" to attack targets on Russian soil.

 

During his press conference with Lemmy in London on Tuesday, Blinken indicated that the Biden administration was willing to allow Russia to use Atcoms missiles.

 

"I think one of the hallmarks of our effort from day one to support Ukraine against this aggression has been to make sure that they have what they need in the most efficient way possible to deal with Russian aggression," he said. I think you have seen from the first day that we have constantly adapted ourselves based on the conditions in the field and based on the performance of Russia. This has been our policy in all our work.

However, a US official told Warzone "there has been no change in our policy regarding the use of ATCOMs."

 

British Ministry of Defense officials also adopted a similar position.

 

This report continues: "An official of the British Ministry of Defense told Warzone on Tuesday morning that there has been no change in the British position. We have provided military assistance in support of Ukraine's inalienable right to self-defense against illegal Russian attacks under international human rights law. "We have clearly said that the equipment provided by England is for the defense of Ukraine."

 

The Biden administration has allowed Ukraine to use other missile and fire systems donated by the United States, including Himars and MLRAS, against Russia, which have a range of about 50 miles.

 

Unlike America and Ukraine, the Ministry of Defense of the Netherlands has announced that it has not created such obstacles for Ukraine and can attack anywhere in Russia with weapons donated by the Netherlands.

 

Warzone further wrote that the claim of delivery of Iranian ballistic missiles to Russia may encourage the Biden administration to allow the use of these missiles against Russia.

 

Although this claim has been denied by the Iranian authorities and its authenticity has not been confirmed by the Russian authorities, the office of the President of Ukraine has said that the threat of Russia's use of these ballistic missiles is another reason why Ukraine should use the donated long-range weapons. Allowed for use against Russian soil.

 

One of the main reasons why the Biden administration has not yet allowed Ukraine to use Atcoms missiles against Russia is concerns about the escalation of conflict with a nuclear power. However, despite the fact that Russian President Vladimir Putin has implicitly outlined the prospect of using nuclear weapons many times and the West has crossed several red lines such as providing tanks and F-16 fighters to Ukraine, an action in this regard It has not been seen from Russia.

 

In addition, the Daily Telegraph reported that informed sources in the British government believe that there is a possibility of a change in London's policy regarding Ukraine's use of long-range missiles this week, but despite ongoing high-level talks in this regard. There is no guarantee.

 

Britain has been trying to get Ukraine to allow long-range missiles, including the Sturmshadow, not only to defend Ukraine internally, but also to attack targets in Russia. These missiles are fired with the help of some American missile systems. The Biden administration has not authorized the use of its military technology for use on Russian soil.

 

US officials argue that Sturm missiles do not have sufficient range to target Russian cruise missiles, one of the targets identified by Zelensky. The Pentagon has expressed concern that the use of these missiles in Russia may lead to the spread of conflicts.

 

Kiev claims that Sturm Shedo missiles have been effective in stopping Russian advances on Ukrainian soil, and the country's political authorities are seeking permission to use them for their attacks on Russian soil.

 

Meanwhile, Vyacheslav Volodin, the Speaker of the Russian Parliament, published a message on his personal Telegram page and said that if the Westerners allow Ukraine to use long-range weapons deep inside Russian territory, Moscow will consider the United States and its allies as one of the parties to the conflict in the Ukraine war.
