O Presidente Joe Biden diz que está a considerar o levantamento das restrições ao uso pela Ucrânia dos mísseis de longo alcance dos EUA.

By Jordi Bou

September 11, 2024 - President Joe Biden says he is considering lifting restrictions on Ukraine using U.S. long-range missiles against Russia.

Biden has said his administration is “working” on whether to lift the restrictions.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has repeatedly called for restrictions on western-supplied, long-range weapons to be lifted so his military can strike Russian airfields and missile launchers, as well as the ammunition depots, fuel storage and command and control centres that are critical to Moscow’s war. 

The ability to use U.S. long-range Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) would allow Kyiv to strike back against Moscow’s use of deadly “glide bombs”.

At the moment, the U.S. and UK have not given Ukraine permission to use long-range missiles against targets inside Russia for fear of escalation.
