Germany, France, Britain and US have allowed Ukraine to carry out long-range strikes with their weapons, - Merz (updated)
The UK, France, Germany and the US have lifted restrictions on the supply of military equipment to Ukraine.
According to Censor.NET, citing Clash Report, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said this.
According to him, "long-range strikes with Western weapons into Russian territory is now allowed".
During a broadcast on German public television, the Chancellor of Germany stated that there are no longer "any restrictions" on long-range strikes using weapons supplied to Ukraine by the British, the French, the Germans, or the Americans.
"This means that Ukraine can now defend itself, including by striking military targets on Russian territory. Until recently, it was not allowed to do so—and except for very rare cases, it did not. Now it can. It can strike military targets in the rear, and this represents a decisive qualitative shift in how Ukraine conducts this war," he explained.
Merz drew attention to the fact that Russia "is ruthlessly attacking civilian infrastructure—bombing cities, kindergartens, hospitals, and homes for the elderly."
"Ukraine is not doing this, and we place great importance on ensuring that it remains this way," the Chancellor added.
