Multiple NATO countries have announced publicly that Ukraine can use their military assistance to hit targets inside Russian territory
Ukraine’s allies have provided them with several billions of dollars worth of military aid, but the leaders of those countries have been concerned about the possibility of Russian Presidentescalating the conflict. But, the war has increasingly gone in Russia’s favor as they exploited Ukraine’s ammunition and troop shortages after several months without U.S. military support.
“How can we explain to Ukraine that they need to protect their cities … but that they don’t have the right to attack where the missiles are coming from? It’s as if we were telling them we’re giving you arms, but you cannot use them to defend yourself,” Macron said late Tuesday during a press conference in Germany.
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg argued earlier this week that “The right to self-defense includes hitting legitimate targets outside Ukraine,” while U.K. Foreign Secretary David Cameron said in early May that Ukraine could use British long-range weapons, such as the Storm Shadow cruise missile, to hit back at Russia.
