The EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell, has said that the US permission for strikes by missiles with a range of up to 300 kilometers against targets in Russia was discussed at a meeting of the EU foreign ministers.
Borrel was asked at the press conference how he explains that US President Joe Biden decided to authorize Ukraine to strike targets in Russia with long-range missiles now, after Donald Trump’s election victory.
Borrell responded that the Biden administration allowed Ukraine to use missiles up to 300 kilometers deep into Russian territory. “It’s not much, but it’s a decision of the Biden administration,” the head of European diplomacy added.
At the same time, a general decision to cancel restrictions on strikes on targets in Russia, according to Borrell, was not made at the meeting of foreign ministers. Each country will decide this issue on its own.
