In May, Ukraine confirmed that the United States authorised the limited use of its weapons to strike Russian territory.
The White House clarified that the permission to strike with US weapons applies to the border not only in Kharkiv but also in Sumy Oblast. At the same time, the permit does not apply to long-range ATACMS missiles.
At the same time, Kyiv wishes to agree on broadening the scope of this authorisation.
