Polish FM Calls For US To Lift Restrictions On Long-Range Missile Use

UKRAINE

Polish Foreign Minister Radek Sikorski has said that 'Poland remains in favour of increasing pressure on the Russian gov't', and that 'Restrictions on Ukraine using long-range weapons should be lifted'. The stance is nothing new, with the gov't of PM Donald Tusk one of the most hawkish among Ukraine's allies calling for a tougher stance towards Moscow. Sikorski's comments came at a presser alongside US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who has arrived back in Poland following his trip to Kyiv alongside UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy.

  • There is significant focus on the meeting taking place at the White House tomorrow (13 Sep) between US President Joe Biden and UK PM Sir Keir Starmer, with speculation mounting that the two will announce the lifting of restrictions on Ukraine firing ATACMS and Storm Shadow missiles at targets deep within the Russian Federation.
