“U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Friday confirmed that the U.S. President Joe Biden approved Ukraine’s usage of weapons supplied by the U.S. within Russia. This only applies to Russian targets that are attacking Ukraine’s Kharkiv region.
“Over the past few weeks, Ukraine came to us and asked for the authorization to use weapons that we’re providing to defend against this aggression, including against Russian forces that are massing on the Russian side of the border and then attacking into Ukraine,” Blinken said at a news conference following an informal meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Prague.
“And that went right to the President, and as you’ve heard, he’s approved use of our weapons for that purpose. Going forward, we’ll continue to do what we’ve been doing, which is as necessary adapt and adjust,” he said.
News of Biden approving the use of U.S. weapons in this way first emerged on Thursday. Biden had previously been against the use of U.S. supplied weapons by Ukraine to carry out strikes on Russian territory.”

“PARIS — Russia will not be invited to the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings after all, the French presidency announced Thursday after talks of a Russian presence at the event stoked tensions between France and allied nations.
“These are not the right conditions for [Russia] to be included, given the war of aggression launched in 2022, which has only intensified in recent weeks,” an Elysée official told reporters.
Last month, D-Day organizers said that President Vladimir Putin would not be invited but that there were plans for some Russian representation to attend given the country’s historic role in the war. Officials from the United Kingdom, the United States and two other World War II allies expressed concerns over the move, with some saying they were caught off-guard, as first reported by POLITICO.”
