U.S. Secretary of State Blinken and his UK Government counterpart arrived in Kyiv on Wednesday morning for talks with President Zelensky which have been widely trailed to be about the deployment of long-range missiles against targets deep inside Russia.
Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal said this morning as he met the two Western envoys: “We hope that long-range equipment for strikes on the territory of our enemy will be reached and we will have it. And we hope for your help and support in this issue.
But Russia has been hammering Ukraine with long-range air-launched glide bombs for months, with these sorties based from airfields deep in Russian territory and out of Ukraine’s reach. Kyiv insists being able to use these long-range missiles it already has to take out Russian airbases with the bomb-carrying aircraft still on the ground is essential for its survival., Blinken said before the trip, the point of going is to “make sure that we have our own best assessment of what’s needed”.
