German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said Ukraine has been given permission to use weapons supplied by its allies to launch strikes deep inside Russia.
¡°There are absolutely no range limits anymore for weapons delivered to Ukraine, not from Britain, the French or from us ¡ª also not from the Americans,¡± Merz said at a conference in Berlin on Monday. ¡°That means Ukraine can defend itself by attacking military positions also in Russia.¡±
Ukraine¡¯s Western allies are trying to intensify pressure on the Kremlin after Moscow launched its biggest drone barrage against Ukraine since the full-scale invasion over three years ago. European leaders have condemned what they call Russia¡¯s foot-dragging as efforts to lock in a ceasefire have gone nowhere.
