Citiraj:
The United States has already doubled artillery production, even sending cluster munitions despite opposition from many Democrats, and is asking allies to “dig deep” and scrounge for Soviet-era bullets and air defenses. It has agreed to train Ukrainian pilots on F-16 fighter jets, and has even sent warm clothes and breaching equipment to allow Kyiv to continue fighting through another winter.
More than 18 months since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the Biden administration has, after much deliberation, broken almost every apparent taboo that could trigger Kremlin escalation. First came artillery, then multiple rocket launch systems, and now the fanciest tanks that the United States has to offer. Just don’t ask the Biden administration when it plans to approve sending really long-range weapons to Ukraine.
The imminent U.S. decision about whether to finally dispatch the long-range U.S. Army Tactical Missile System, which Kyiv has been asking about for over a year, including this week ahead of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s White House visit, is the one big remaining question mark. The United Kingdom and France have sent long-range weapons—considered potentially problematic, since they can strike beyond the battlefront and into Russia proper—with deployments of the Storm Shadow and SCALP missiles. But U.S. officials are still mum.
