The US allowed them to beat their weapons in military airfields in the Russian Federation, but Ukraine doubts - WP

Ukraine is convinced that the US has clearly marked the limits of using the weapons provided that they do not go beyond Kharkiv protection. Washington also claim that the Armed Forces can strike American weapons almost for any legal purposes. The new US policy, which allows Ukraine to shoot certain types of American weapons in Russia, has led to the reduction of some Russian attacks, but still limits the range so much that it does not allow Ukraine to strike key airfields.

Two Ukrainian officials said this Washington Post. These aerodromes are used by Russian aircraft, which discharge the cabin, which now do the greatest harm to military positions and civilian populations. Ukrainian officials have stated that the United States restricted Ukraine at a distance of less than 100 kilometers or approximately 62 miles from the border.

For their part, US officials refused to clarify the restrictions, but stated that the assertion of Ukrainians about the distance of less than 100 kilometers is incorrect. "The US agreed to allow Ukraine to shoot from the US weapons in Russia where Russian troops arrive, trying to seize Ukrainian territory.

It is not about geography or a certain radius, but if Russia attacks or is about to attack its territory from its territory to Ukraine, Ukraine is able to strike In response to the forces that strike it from abroad, "-said Pentagon representative Major Charlie Ditz.

He also added that Ukraine is allowed to use the US Air Defense Systems for strikes on Russian aircraft, if they are going to open fire on the Ukrainian airspace, in addition, national security advisor Jake Sullivan stated that in this case it is not about geography . "If Russia attacks or is about to attack its territory to Ukraine, it makes sense to allow Ukraine to strike in response to the forces that strike it from abroad," Sullivan said.

According to the newspaper, officials in Kiev do not want to be considered to be publicly contrary to their American colleagues, but in the material it is emphasized that the Ukrainian military does not believe that they have the freedom of such actions as the statements of representatives of the White House and the Pentagon. We will remind that on June 8 at the airfield "Akhtubinsk" in the Astrakhan region the Russian fighter Su-57 was amazed.
