Jun 18, 2024, 09:55 PM

US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan announced that the United States has authorized Ukraine to use American weapons for cross-border attacks into Russia. This authorization extends beyond the Kharkiv region to other Russian regions, including areas across from Sumy. Sullivan emphasized that the policy is not about geography but common sense, allowing Ukraine to target any location where Russian forces are launching attacks against Ukraine. The parameters of this policy are expected to continue expanding. The White House confirmed this agreement, and Sullivan reiterated these points in an interview with PBS.
