US officials question if easing weapon restrictions would make a difference
As American and British officialsdiscussed allowing Ukraine to use Western weapons to strike deep within Russia, some US officials were scepticalthat doing so would make a significant difference in Kyiv's battle against Russian invaders.
USofficials noted that Ukraine already has the capability to hit targets in Russia using drones. TheATACMS missiles would enhance that capability, but they are too costly and limited in number to reshape the dynamic, they said.
Moreover, the Kremlin has largely moved perhaps the most immediate threat -- Russian warplanes launching glide bombs -- beyond the range of the U.S. missiles, the officials added.
