Washington’s policy on the use of ATACMS has not changed, but negotiations continue to allow the use of Storm Shadow.
The US and UK are discussing permission for Ukraine to launch long-range strikes on Russian territory. We are talking about the use of British cruise missiles using US navigation data. Bloomberg reported this on Thursday, September 12, citing sources.
It was noted that this issue was part of the talks that took place over the past few days with the participation of US Secretary of State Antony Blinken in London and Kyiv.
As Kyiv pushes for more powerful Western weapons to strike military targets inside Russia, officials have discussed whether the White House could give Ukraine permission to use British Storm Shadow missiles, containing parts of America, to strike deep into the Russian Federation, the publication’s sources said. .
Meanwhile, the Pentagon said Thursday that its current policy on attacking Ukraine deep in Russian territory with Western-supplied weapons has not changed.
We remind you that on Wednesday The Guardian reported that Britain allowed Ukraine to fire Storm Shadow missiles at the Russian Federation. However, it will not be officially announced in the near future to avoid “unnecessary provocations.”
Meanwhile, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin said Ukraine strikes using Western long-range weapons deep in Russia would be considered direct participation of NATO countries in the war. Here, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said his country is not looking for war with Russia, but is helping Ukraine defend itself.
