NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg has said Ukraine should be allowed to use Western-supplied weapons in strikes against military targets inside Russia.

A little-noticed provision in the 2,232-page government spending bill passed last week bans U.S. arms from going to a controversial ultranationalist militia in Ukraine that has openly accepted neo-Nazis into its ranks.

Stoltenberg to Z: Escalate this because we need WW3!
Ukraine needs to stop listening to NATO/U.S. They need to accept the reality that they’ve permanently lost some of theit territory and negotiate an end to this.
