Summary
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned Europe that it cannot withstand Russia without Ukraine’s military, calling Ukraine’s victory vital to stopping Kremlin expansion.
Speaking to Polish media, Zelenskyy stressed that Russia’s larger, more brutal army would target other European nations if Ukraine falls.
He criticized Western allies for underestimating Russian President Vladimir Putin’s ambitions, urging them to strengthen Ukraine’s defenses.
Ukraine wouldn’t be a “pawn” if Russia never invaded and kept to the treaties they made with NATO.
The west doesn’t have to authorize anything. Since Ukraine is a sovereign nation that can decide that themselves.
And they did, or do you think Moscow isn’t “deep” enough? https://edition.cnn.com/2024/09/10/europe/ukraine-drone-strikes-moscow-intl/index.html
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe the US has to approve the use of the weapons they provide. Ukraine is not authorized to use US weapons to hit deep Russia, they can do whatever they want with weapons they produce, tho.
The drones are made by Ukraine, if I recall correctly.
