The White House confirming that Ukraine cannot hit Russia with ATACMS missiles is a decision that has left many people scratching their heads.

Moscow warns of escalation after Ukraine was told it can hit Russia. The audacity of the Kremlin to claim that NATO countries are deliberately provoking Ukraine to continue the war they started is laughable.
