U.S. President Joe Biden's administration has reversed its policy, allowing Ukraine to use U.S.-supplied weapons for strikes deep into Russia. The decision follows Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy’s calls to counter Russian aggression, now bolstered by North Korean troops aiding Russia. Kyiv is set to deploy long-range ATACMS rockets. Critics, including Russian officials, warned this could escalate the conflict to global proportions. While some Republicans praised Biden’s move, others deemed it overdue. Ukraine plans initial strikes in coming days, aiming to strengthen its negotiating position. The Kremlin has yet to respond officially, but tensions remain high.
