UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer did not signal any decision on allowing Ukraine to use long-range missiles to hit targets inside Russia after talks with US President Joe Biden in Washington, the
BBC reports.
When asked if he had persuaded Biden to allow Ukraine to fire long-range Storm Shadow missiles into Russia, Sir Keir said they had had “a long and productive discussion on a number of fronts, including Ukraine, as you would expect, the Middle East and the Indo-Pacific”.
The White House said they also expressed “deep concern about Iran and North Korea’s provision of lethal weapons to Russia”.
Earlier Russian President Vladimir Putin warned Western nations not to let Ukraine fire long-range missiles at Russia.
Putin said such a move would represent Nato’s “direct participation” in the Ukraine war.
