US and UK foreign ministers in Ukraine amid calls to allow strikes deep into Russia | BBC News
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy have arrived in Kyiv on a joint visit as Ukraine continues to press for the right to use US and British long-range missiles against Russia.
The two men travelled together to the Ukrainian capital after talks in London. They are due to meet President Volodymr Zelensky, who has repeatedly called on Washington to loosen the limits on US-supplied weapons.
The policy will come under further scrutiny when UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer meets President Biden at the White House on Friday.
Ukrainian officials have said the restrictions have left them fighting against Russia’s full-scale invasion with their hands tied.
The Kremlin said on Wednesday that Russia would respond “appropriately” if the US were to allow Ukrainian missile strikes on its territory.

The trolls are all over this, a sure sign that Putin is worried. He should be
Uk has given £2.71BN in arms to Ukraine, thank you pensioners for giving up £1.5bn in heating to pay for this.
If Ukraine strike deep into the Russian territory, the war will escalate further.
Americans better start contemplating the scenario of post civilization they are pursuing so enthusiastically…
I do recommend watching the movie MAD Max for inspiration.
Lammy looks lost fool of a man so out of hes depth
bbc sent nick in nick of time to get all that gold from building tops behind him
Ah Mr Lammey! The father Dougal of British politics.
The United States and United Kingdom are so useless and likes to bully other countries. The united state and United Kingdom are sending billions of dollars including weapons and military personnel to Ukraine, but they are complaining that Iran is sending ballistic missile to Russia. That’s total nonsense, what makes you think you got the right to send weapons to Ukraine and other countries don’t have the same right to send weapons to Russia.
Gosh, lammy is a bit of an embarrassment. Is that the best we had, seriously?
Lammy, winging it….god help us.

World war 3…….has already begun
Blinken is Netanyahu's lawyer, is a war criminal .
I wonder how many millionaires we have created with this war.
Antony Blinkered and David Lame. Now that is a meeting of minds. Simple minds, but minds nonetheless.
After hitting Moscow the other day by Kiev. Tony and Lammy called Putin's bluff. This isn't a good idea guys to provoke escalating lethal response by the Kremlin.
Biden guaranteeing his family keep the bucks rolling in after his removal.

Poltava strike by the Russian Federation is Tony's and David's fault.
