"The decision to lift any restrictions on the use of Western-supplied long-range weapons by Ukraine was made months ago, the German chancellor clarified on Tuesday."
"In this respect, yesterday in Berlin, I described something that has been happening for months: namely, that Ukraine has the right to use the weapons it receives."
"Until recently, it couldn't do that, and apart from very few exceptions, it hadn't done so either."
"Russia attacks civilian targets completely ruthlessly, bombing cities, kindergartens, hospitals and old people's homes - Ukraine doesn't do that."
Germany's chancellor confirmed the decision to allow Ukraine to fully utilize Western-supplied long-range weapons, made months prior. The lifting of restrictions enables Ukraine to strike military targets in Russia as a defensive measure. Previously, Ukraine was limited in its use of these weapons, with a few exceptions. The Russian military continues its attacks on Ukrainian civilian areas, while Kyiv targets Russian military infrastructure. The change reflects a shift in policy among Western allies supporting Ukraine against the ongoing conflict with Russia.
