The US appears to have expanded its agreement with Ukraine to strike over the border inside Russian territory wherever Russian forces are engaging in cross-border attacks into Ukraine, not just in the Kharkiv region as was previously determined.

National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan told PBS News on Monday that the agreement with Ukraine to fire into Russia extends wherever Russian forces are attempting to invade.

    This sounds more like a clarification on existing policy, although it is telling they’ve said it so explicitly.

    I do wonder at what point will Russia accept they simply can’t win this though? Ukraine is getting more and more advanced weapons systems, and ever increasing quantities of supplies and ammunition, while Russia is running out of everything. What’s the end game?

      while Russia is running out of everything

      Not sure where this is coming from. Russia has mostly reconstituted its forces and got their war economy going and supply lines from Iran and north Korea… China

      This cavalier attitude about Russian capabilities is the big reason why the war is draging on tbh
