By John Q. Hosedrinker I have been following the recent reports about the US considering letting Ukraine use its weapons to strike Russia, even if it enrages Putin. And honestly, my immediate reaction to this news is a resounding “about time!” It is long overdue for Ukraine to have the ability to defend itself and retaliate against Russian aggression. If Russia can use North Korean and Iranian weapons to attack Ukraine, then why shouldn’t Ukraine be able to strike back with Western weapons?
The idea of letting Ukraine hit Russia with Western weapons, even if it angers Putin, is not just a matter of tit for tat. It is a crucial step in supporting Ukraine’s sovereignty and right to defend itself against a powerful aggressor. Putin’s threats of nuclear blackmail should not deter us from empowering Ukraine to fight back. We cannot allow Russia to continue its brutal campaign in Ukraine unchecked.
Putin’s rage should not be a factor in our decision-making. Allowing Ukraine to use its weapons against Russian targets is not about escalating the conflict, but about giving Ukraine a fighting chance and sending a strong message to Russia that its actions will not go unpunished. It is about ending the suffering of innocent civilians in Ukraine and holding Russia accountable for its aggression.
The fact that Ukraine has been under attack for years and still does not have the full support it needs to defend itself is truly mind-boggling. It is time to stop the endless debates and hesitations and take decisive action. Ukraine should have the green light to strike Russian targets and cripple Russia’s ability to wage war. It is a matter of survival for Ukraine and a crucial step towards ending the conflict.
By restricting Ukraine from using its weapons to defend itself, we are failing to uphold the principles of self-defense and sovereignty. Russia is exploiting this weakness and using it to its advantage. We cannot allow Putin to continue bombing Ukraine and threatening nuclear war without consequences. We must show Russia that its actions have repercussions and that Ukraine will not be a passive victim.
In conclusion, it is high time for the US to grant Ukraine the authorization to use its weapons against Russian targets. We cannot let Putin’s rage dictate our actions. Ukraine deserves the right to defend itself and push back against Russian aggression. It is time to support Ukraine fully and end the suffering of its people. Letting Ukraine strike Russia with Western weapons may enrage Putin, but it is a necessary and long-overdue step towards bringing justice and peace to the region.
