Disagree with Biden: Speaker Johnson wants more permits for Ukraine's blows to Ukraine
I think we need to give them weapons needed to protect, and in order to repel the Russians," Johnson said. He stressed that he disagrees with the US President and plans to raise this issue at a meeting with him. "That's why I am against the President in this. I have already talked about it and I will talk again. We will talk to the White House about it," Johnson said.
At the same time, a spokesman for US State Department Matthew Miller stated during a briefing that the permission granted to Ukraine with US weapons in Russia is not an escalation in the war. "Russia is an aggressor, and Russia unfolds its troops at the border for civilian attacks. So the United States will continue to take proper measures in response so that Ukraine can protect itself," Miller said. But the State Department did not comment on what distance Ukraine is allowed to strike in Russia.
