President Biden is set to meet with new British Prime Minister Kirstarmer at the White House to discuss the possibility of allowing Ukraine to use long-range weapons provided by Western allies to strike deep into Russian territory. The issue has been a hot-button topic, with increasing pressure on Biden to loosen the restrictions from Ukraine and domestic sources.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued a warning that lifting these restrictions could lead to NATO countries being at war with Russia. Retired Army Major Mike Lyons emphasized the strategic implications of such a decision, noting that while the weapons may provide Ukraine with a tactical advantage initially, they could escalate tensions significantly.
