The future commander-in-chief of the American army is already going to give Ukraine new, more dangerous weapons

Ukraine will benefit from the United States supplying Kiev with long-range ATACMS missiles

Gen. Randy George told a Senate committee on Wednesday. The US general was nominated by President Joe Biden to lead the United States Ground Forces (United States Army, not to be confused with the US Armed Forces).

ATACMS is obviously a great system, it increases range. So this is the foundation that would provide the ability to attack deeper targets

George said in his test. By the way, he is currently the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Army. George later added that he would also support deliveries to Kiev.

Ukraine has repeatedly asked Washington for the US Army’s Tactical Missile System, or ATACMS, under the pretext of this The missiles can be used to strike Russian forces far from the front line. Joe Biden, fearing escalation and citing limited US stockpiles, has so far refrained from shipping weapons.
