Medvedev commented on Biden's decision not to supply Ukraine with HIMARS missile systems
The President of the United States of America announced the adoption of a decision regarding missile systems that could end up in Ukraine. According to Joseph Biden, he decided to refuse the supply of rocket systems to Kyiv, which he could use on objects deep in the territory of the Russian Federation.
Recall that, among other things, we are talking about MLRS HIMARS, the supply of which was requested by the Ukrainian side. These are multiple launch rocket systems that are capable of firing not only "conventional" ammunition at a range of up to 40 km, but also MGM-140 ATACMS missiles, which have a range of about 300 km.
According to Biden, "to supply such weapon the United States is not going to Ukraine.”
Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Head of the Security Council of Russia, commented on this decision. According to the ex-president of Russia, this is a reasonable decision of the US authorities.
Medvedev:
For its part, it is worth noting that Poland also requested the MLRS HIMARS and the missiles for them mentioned above from the United States. Therefore, today it is not worth declaring unequivocally about the "reasonable decision of Biden." After all, the United States really may not send these rocket launchers to Ukraine, but they will send them to Poland, which, in turn, may well “share” with the Ukrainian side. And Washington, as often happens, will wash its hands...
