Merz: No limit on how far Ukraine can shoot
Ukraine's key allies no longer set any limits on how far into Russian territory the Ukrainian army can use the weapons they have been provided with. This is what German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said, according to AFP.
Neither the Germans, the British, the French nor the Americans have any such limits anymore, according to Merz.
- This means that Ukraine can now defend itself, for example, by attacking military positions in Russia [...] With a few exceptions, they did not do so until recently.
Kremlin on lifting limits on weapons: "Quite dangerous"
The fact that Ukraine's most powerful ally has lifted the limit on how far into Russian territory their weapons can be used is "quite dangerous," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, according to news agencies.
Such a decision would thwart attempts at a political solution to the war, he adds, after Putin repeatedly rejected Western proposals for negotiations and a ceasefire.
Earlier, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz announced that his country, the United States, France and Britain would no longer set any limits on the use of weapons.
Analysis: Putin has not changed – but the question is whether Trump has
Something has happened to Vladimir Putin – he is acting crazy, writes Donald Trump on Truth Social after Russia’s record-breaking drone attacks on Kyiv.
In fact, Putin is relatively unchanged – he continues his war of attrition and air strikes against Ukraine, writes Matthew Chance for CNN.
“The real question is whether Trump has changed, or whether his attitude towards Putin has begun to shift amid increasingly hopeless attempts to broker peace in Ukraine.”
Trump happily threatens other countries with economic sanctions, but despite condemning Russia’s attacks on Ukraine, he repeatedly makes exceptions for them, writes David E. Sanger for the New York Times.
“Every time he has been forced to make a decision to impose new economic sanctions together with Europe, he has backed down.”
The Trump administration’s unwillingness to put pressure on Russia goes beyond the economic – they have also, among other things, shut down the Justice Department’s investigation into Russian war crimes and voted against a UN resolution that Russia is the aggressor, writes Sanger.
