The U.S., U.K., France, and Germany have lifted range restrictions on weapons for Ukraine

This was announced by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz.

“There are no longer any range restrictions on weapons supplied to Ukraine — not from the United Kingdom, not from France, not from us. And not from the Americans either,” he said.

This means that Ukraine can defend itself, he noted, “for example, by striking military positions in Russia.”

Kremlin-aligned war correspondent Kots claimed that the Ukrainian Armed Forces may soon receive the long-range air-to-surface cruise missile Taurus, capable of hitting targets up to 500 kilometers away.

“A fighter armed with a Taurus could reach, for instance, Tula or Kaluga from Kharkiv Oblast. A serious threat that will require a response,” he wrote.

Germany has not officially confirmed deliveries of this weapon to Ukraine.

Okay that's fair, but the governments overall have no such excuse. Our (American) jackass just got reelected, but Biden was just as bad on this issue. For different reasons, but that's besides the point.
