According to a Berlin spokeswoman, Germany is certain that Ukraine has the right to defend itself against Russia, particularly against cross-border assaults on Kharkiv, the country’s second-largest city.
US sources stated that when Russian forces were “hitting them or preparing to hit them” close to the Kharkiv region, US-supplied weaponry may be deployed to retaliate.
According to Volodymyr Zelensky, the president of Ukraine, the move will help safeguard villagers that are close to the Russian border.
NATO nations, particularly the United States and a number of European nations, have “entered”.
There is a new round of rising hostilities, and they are doing it on purpose,” the Tass news agency cited him as saying.
“They are, in every possible way, provoking Ukraine to continue this senseless war.”
Following a surprise attack near the Russian border, Russian forces have made progress in the Kharkiv region in recent weeks.
Even before US President Joe Biden said on Thursday night that the US might use its weapons, the UK and France had already said they were open to lifting restrictions on Ukraine’s ability to attack military targets within Russian territory.
“Our policy with respect to prohibiting the use of the Army Tactical Missile System [ATACMS] or long-range strikes inside Russia has not changed,” a US official, however, told the news.
