Zelensky leaves US without permission to use weapons to strike deep inside Russia

Ukrainian President Vlodymyr Zelensky essentially conceded that the United States did not make a decision to lift the restrictions on the use of Western arms for strikes deep inside Russia.

The president posted a video to Telegram that says he presented the US with his “victory plan” during the trip to America.

“We have now tasked our teams to flesh out every step, every decision,” he said in the video.

“Everything that is key for Ukraine, the partners now have on their table. Everything is being considered: the long range, a defense package, sanctions against Russia, steps about Russian assets,” he added.

Earlier, Politico reported, citing sources, that the United States was still discussing the possibility of allowing strikes deep inside Russia with Western weapons, even though the Pentagon expressed a view that the move would not likely bring strategic benefit to Kiev.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned that such a move would directly involve the US and its allies in the conflict, given that Kiev is unable to fire sophisticated weapons without Western assistance and targeting data.
