Volodymyr Zelenskiy has complained that it has become increasingly difficult to use Storm Shadow missiles against Russian targets in occupied Ukraine because of a lack of supplies and reduced cooperation from the US, UK and France.
. . .
Zelenskiy said Ukraine needed to be able to threaten targets inside Russia’s internationally recognised borders with Anglo-French Storm Shadow/Scalp cruise missiles and US Atacms ballistic missiles, repeating a demand he has made on several occasions previously.
But he then went further and suggested it was even becoming difficult in practice to strike Russian targets on occupied Ukrainian territory, which has been permitted by supplying countries for months.
Its genuinely curious to see a guy who is ostensibly head of his country’s armed forces have to go hat-in-hand to all the NATO states and ask permission to use the weapons he was granted for the purpose he’s ostensibly been set to. I’m beginning to wonder why the US paid through the nose for a British Aerospace product to sit in a Ukrainian storage locker until some Russian artillery sergeant can figure out which warehouse to shell.
America will give Israel guns and money and let them commit a genocide.
But Ukraine isn’t allowed to defend itself.
Ukrainians don’t run the US banking and entertainment industries. They can hold them hostage and bring the country to its knees if they wanted to.
Palestinians don’t have nukes.
I don’t agree with the policy, and fucking hate what the Israelis are doing, but that’s the main difference in this case
They will never use nukes, as that would be the end for them. But unfortunately you seem to be correct :-/
Usually I’m glad and smug if someone says I’m correct, not now.
