U.S. President Joe Biden said on Tuesday that his administration was "working that out now" when asked if the U.S. would lift restrictions on Ukraine's use of long range weapons in its war against Russia.
The U.S. has been reluctant to supply or sanction the use of weapons that could strike targets deep inside in Russia for fear it would escalate the conflict.
Kyiv's other allies have been supplying weapons, but with restrictions on how and when they can be used inside Russia, out of concern such strikes could prompt retaliation that draws NATO countries into the war or provokes a nuclear conflict.

Since there is no ethnic cleansing there is nothing to stop. Perhaps you should stop your Russian propaganda.
Yeah, because Biden had a corrupt relationship with one Ukrainian company every action of the entire Ukrainian state must be corrupt and they have no right to defend themselves. What logic!
“After all, no one else in Ukraine would object to their country being subjugated by Russia.”
Why should we even care? Ukraine is not out friend. Ukraine is not our ally. Ukraine is looking after its own interests, as we should. Ukraine is not one of them. They couldn’t even be bothered to vote with us on those anti-Israel UN resolutions earlier this year. Some “friends” they were. Just another corrupt Slavic craphole not worth the life of a single one of our kids.
“You are funny, It is okay for the collective West to send $$$$billions of weapons to Ukraine but forbidden for Vlad to do the same?”
Is that like the same as its ok for Russia can send ballistic missiles all over Ukraine but Urkaine forbidden to do the same?
If so, I concede your point.
Ukraine doesn’t have nukes but our enemy Russia does, and Russia’s supporters here have supported their use by Russia.
That threat is much more realistic than someone saying better dead than red when speaking of America.
I asked if they were American, they declined to answer.
“Ukraine is looking after its own interests, as we should.”
Our interest is to not let Russia get stronger.
Unlike Russia, Ukraine does not have subs with nukes off our coast. If that means helping Ukraine fight its illegal invasion by Russia, Thats fine with me.
Notwithstanding I pray for a just peace.
For the record then, I am an American, born a bred. The only time that I have lived outside of the U.S. are the three years that I served in the U.S. Army in Germany. For you to question if I am an American because I disagree with you is the hight of arrogance. But such an attempt at character assassination is typical of Russian apologists. And if you have not noticed, there are plenty of Americans who support Ukraine in their fight against Russian oppression.
BTW, in standard English when someone’s sex is unknown the proper pronoun is the generic “he,” not the plural “them.” I am surprised that anyone claiming to be a conservative on Free Republic would resort to such a woke pronoun usage.
I reject your premise. This is not Biden's war but Putin's. Stop giving excuses for Russia's aggression
Stop funding corrupt Ukrainians. You do know that Corrupt Pedo Moe and his his crackhead sone have dirty deals with Ukraine, right ?
Why don’t you address this?
Shouldn’t you be supporting Kamala ? She wants the war to continue too.
She just said as much live.
You cannot posit that all the aid that is being given to Ukraine is corrupt because one past business relationship that Biden had in the past. That the Ukrainians have been holding off the second largest military for 2 1/2 years shows that they have been putting that aid to good use. All you are doing is engaging in character assassination to give cover to Russian aggression.
Whether Biden or Kamala support Ukraine or not is not relevant. That is just an attempt of guilt by association. What is the question is should we support the Ukrainian people in their resistance to Russian aggression. The answer is yes regardless of who is in the White House or what the Democrats think.
All Biden understands is keeping 10% of the cash.
Everyone seems to want the killing to stop. Makes sense. Just tell Russia to go home. Hit the road jack and don’t come back no more, no more and don’tcha come back no more. Why blame Biden, Ukraine, Nato and the Prez of Ukraine and leave out PUTIN??!!
My point is that the Biden "Admin - composition unknown" is that they've still got plenty of time opening up Russia to vulnerability from long-range western missles.
Please pray for President Trump and a little more time before Joe really screws things up to WWIII levels.
:”Unlike Russia, Ukraine does not have subs with nukes off our coast. “
This is the stupidest reason I’ve ever seen given to support Ukraine. Why, somehow, maybe by magic or unicorn farts, Ukraine will get rid of those nasty old Ruzzian missiles off “our” coast. Maybe Anthony will wish them to the cornfield, and what’s with this “OUR” and “we” crap again. You’re not even American.
One hopes so. But, don't forget many Ukrainians saw the Germans as liberators in WW2, even to the extent of joining their military as revenge against the Russians and the Holodomor they deliberately set.
Oh... I thought you were a female.
” joining their military as revenge against the Russians and the Holodomor they deliberately set.”
Nope... the vast majority who joined the Nazi Germans when they invaded were Galicians in western areas around Lviv etc.
That area was Polish in 1932 and 33 when the Holomodor happened. Today western Ukes love to act like that was why they did when they did with the nazis. But it is not factual. The Holomodor was nearly 10 years before the Germans invaded and the Ukes were Polish then in 32/33. The Holmodor never touched Lviv and the Galician cities.
