Blinken stated that he wanted to hear directly from President Vladimir Zelensky, what the goals of Kiev pursue in the war and that Washington can do to help them achieve them. Journalists suggest that Zelensky will probably reappear to their allies to allow Kiev to strike Western weapons, in particular by US ladies of ATACMS and British Storm Shadows, in order to limit Moscow to Ukraine.
Blinken and Lemmy are expected to require more information about its strategic goals from Ukraine when they make a decision, or make permission to Kiev. "Washington and some European capitals are afraid that this provokes Russia for direct conflict with the West, although officials also recognize that Ukraine needs more assistance if it wants to change the course of war in its favor," the authors of the material say.
On the eve of the night, US President Joe Biden suggested that there was a compromise. Asked whether Washington would remove the restriction on the use of farm weapons in the war against Russia, the White House leader said his administration was "working on it now.
" In turn, the head of the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation Vyacheslav Volodin said that Moscow would consider the United States and their allies as parties in the war, if they allow Kiev to use long -range weapons. Blinken refused to say whether Washington would give such permission, but noted that any decision depends on many factors. "Not only is the system important.
You have to ask: can Ukrainians use it effectively, and sometimes it requires considerable preparation that we have done. Are they able to support it?" Blinken said. Blinken's visit to Kiev occurs the next day after he stated that Russia has received ballistic missiles from Iran and probably use them for several weeks. According to him, the cooperation between Moscow and Tehran poses a threat to all of Europe.
He added that Washington privately warned Iran that the provision of ballistic missiles in Russia would mean "dramatic escalation. " On Tuesday, September 10, the United States imposed new sanctions against Iran. Both Russia and Iran are denied. Reuters notes that Volodymyr Zelenskyy will go to the United States this month and present Biden and two of his potential successors, which he hopes will bring the end of the war.
