according to cctv news, in response to the claim that the united states and britain may allow ukraine to use western long-range weapons to attack russia's hinterland, the chairman of nato's military committee said on september 14 that from a military perspective it is "reasonable" to allow kiev to use western long-range weapons to attack russia, but each country needs to make its own decision.

the associated press reported that nato military committee chairman rob bauer told a press conference after the nato military committee meeting in prague: "any country that is attacked has the right to defend itself. this right is not limited to the borders of a particular country. therefore, from a military point of view, (ukraine) has good reasons to do this. this can weaken the russian military's logistical supplies."

powell said that nato hopes to continue to help ukraine win with weapons provided by the united states and its allies, as well as weapons made by ukraine itself. but at the same time, he also acknowledged that countries that provide weapons to ukraine have the right to set restrictions on the use of weapons because these countries are responsible for supplying weapons, and "different countries have different views."

at a press conference, lieutenant general karel rechka, chief of the czech armed forces general staff, made it clear that the czech republic has no such weapons restrictions on kiev. "we believe that ukrainians should decide for themselves how to use it."
