Zelenskyy threat Russia with missiles after Biden nod
Insight Online News
Kyiv, Nov 18 : Volodymyr Zelenskyy, commenting on media reports about US President Joe Biden’s permission to Ukraine to use long-range weapons to strike deep inside Russia, said that such things “are not announced,” and “the missiles will speak for themselves.”
“Today, a lot is said in the media that we have received permission to take appropriate actions. But strikes are not carried out with words. Such things are not announced. The missiles will speak for themselves,” Zelenskyy said in a video message published on Telegram.
As a number of US media outlets reported on November 17 that the Biden administration had authorized Ukraine to use long-range missiles to strike deep at Russian territory. France’s Le Figaro also claimed that France and the United Kingdom, following the United States, had also allegedly allowed Ukraine to strike at Russian territory using their long-range weapons.
Russia believes that arms supplies to Ukraine hinder the settlement, directly involving NATO countries in the conflict. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov noted that any cargo containing weapons for Ukraine would be a legitimate target for Russia. The Kremlin stated that pumping weapons into Ukraine by the West did not contribute to negotiations and would have a negative effect.
