In a significant shift in U.S. military policy, President Joe Biden has announced that Ukraine will be permitted to use long-range American missiles for attacks inside Russia, including regions like Kursk. This change occurs as North Korea reportedly sends thousands of troops to support Russian forces, amplifying the risks associated with the ongoing conflict. The decision follows extensive internal debates surrounding the potential escalation of the war and prudence in the usage of military resources. The Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS), which has a striking range of 180 to 190 kilometers, will be utilized by Ukraine to attack critical logistical centers, troop concentrations, and ammunition depots in Russian territory. The Biden administration aims to turn the tide against Russian and North Korean aggression while simultaneously signaling that foreign troops interfering in this conflict will face consequences. The ongoing discussions with global leaders signal a broader acknowledgment of this policy change and its implications for regional stability.
