Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has been requesting allies to allow Ukraine to fire Western missiles, including long-range U.S. ATACMS and British Storm Shadows, deep into Russia.
However, Kirby emphasized that the U.S. is taking Russian President Vladimir Putin’s warnings seriously, reiterating that Putin’s comments are not new and that the U.S. is aware of his aggressive capabilities.
In essence, the White House is maintaining its current stance on Ukraine’s use of long-range missiles, and no changes or announcements are expected soon.
The meeting between Biden and Starmer will likely focus on other topics, leaving Ukraine’s missile capabilities unchanged for now.
