regarding the recent claims that the united states and britain may allow ukraine to use western long-range weapons to strike russia's hinterland, the chairman of nato's military committee said on the 14th that it is reasonable to lift the ban on the ukrainian army using long-range weapons to strike russia, but each country needs to make its own decision. the russian deputy foreign minister said on the same day that the actions of the united states and britain would lead to an escalation of the situation to a point where it is difficult to control.

nato military committee chairman powell said at a press conference held at the nato military committee meeting in prague, the czech capital, on the 14th that from a military perspective, it is reasonable to lift the ban on the ukrainian armed forces using long-range weapons to attack russia, which can weaken the russian military's logistical supply. however, powell pointed out that from a political perspective, countries that provide weapons to ukraine also have the right to set certain limits on the use of weapons, because these countries are responsible for supplying weapons, and each country will have its own views on this.

the day before, us president biden and british prime minister starmer met at the white house. the two sides exchanged views on the situation between russia and ukraine and the situation in gaza. the two sides did not decide whether to allow ukraine to use long-range weapons provided by the west to strike russian targets in depth. starmer said after the meeting that he and biden had extensive discussions on some "strategic issues" and the two sides will have more extensive exchanges during the un general assembly at the end of this month to discuss this issue again.

russian deputy foreign minister sergey ryabkov said on the 14th that if the west lifts restrictions on ukraine's use of long-range weapons to attack russian territory, russia will respond. russia knows that the west has already decided to attack russia's hinterland and has sent relevant signals to ukraine. the actions of the united states and britain will lead to an escalation of the situation to an uncontrollable situation. sergey ryabkov also said that the verbal signals sent by russia to the west about the risk of escalation are ineffective, so it is necessary to "change the nature of the signal."
