Washington admits approving Ukraine strike on Russia using US weapons
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken admits that the US approved the Ukrainian request to use US-supplied weapons to strike Russia. | The US admitted on Friday that it approved the Ukrainian request to use US-supplied weapons to conduct strikes on Russia, explaining that the green light was given on condition that the Ukrainians would limit their strikes to the border areas of Kharkiv, where Russian forces entered in early May.
💬 "Over the past few weeks, Ukraine came to us and asked for the authorization to use weapons that we're providing to defend against this aggression, including against Russian forces that are massing on the Russian side of the border, and then attacking Ukraine. And that went right to the president. And as you've heard, he's approved the use of our weapons for that purpose," Secretary of State Antony Blinken told a press conference following an informal meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Prague.
Secretary of State Antony Blinken mentioned that US support for Ukraine is responsive to battlefield conditions and requirements. He emphasized the importance of adaptation and adjustment, ensuring Ukraine receives the necessary systems and weapons. Blinken reiterated the significance of providing training and capacity building to ensure the effective utilization and maintenance of the supplied weapons systems.
