Ukraine has the right under international law to attack military targets located in Russian territory, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said during an interview on the United News telethon July 14.

United States policy prohibits Ukrainian forces from using U.S.-supplied weapons to strike targets deep within Russia. President Volodymyr Zelensky has called on Washington to lift restrictions, saying the ability to use long-range U.S. weapons such as ATACMS within Russia and occupied Crimea would produce “an instant result.”

In the interview, Stoltenberg affirmed Ukraine’s right to self-defense.

        No no. I’m not saying those states give up their nukes. As far as I know Ukraine doesn’t have any.

        I’m saying the USA supply those places nukes to get Putin to calm down.

          Sorry, seems to be a misunderstanding, I’m supporting that idea using Libya as a negative example of what bad things can happen when you don’t have them. They went from an African Economic powerhouse to an open air slave state all under the orders of a President that won a nobel peace prize.
