Summary
President Biden has authorized Ukraine to use U.S.-supplied long-range ATACMS missiles to strike Russian territory, marking a significant policy shift.
The decision responds to Russia deploying over 10,000 North Korean troops to the Kursk region and aims to bolster Ukraine’s defense against a major Russian offensive.
While some officials warn of potential Russian retaliation against U.S. or European assets, others argue the move sends a strong message to deter North Korea’s involvement.
The policy change comes two months before President-elect Trump, who opposes further Ukraine support, takes office.
Hope Ukraine can get a lot done in the 2 months before US policy changes back. Maybe Biden is trying to force a rift between two old dictators before he leaves office, because as is I doubt Putin is going to allow Trump to stay on Ukraine’s side.
