US President Joe Biden does not intend to give Kiev permission to use long-range missiles to strike deep into the Russian Federation until Vladimir Zelensky presents him with his so-called "victory plan," the Times newspaper reports, citing sources familiar with the discussions at the White House.

"Biden and his team have made it clear that they want to stick to wait-and-see tactics until Zelensky presents his 'winning plan,'" the newspaper writes.

At the same time, the publication notes that there are signs that, even if Biden does not publicly give approval for the use of long-range missiles by Kiev, he may allow the provision of US intelligence data and target designation systems to facilitate the use of British Storm Shadow missiles.

At the same time, newspaper sources point to disagreements in Biden's team on the issue of long-range missiles, in particular, between the head of the US State Department Anthony Blinken and Biden's national security adviser Jake Sullivan. According to a British military source, Sullivan consistently opposes granting permission to Kiev to use long-range missiles.

Earlier, Zelensky, in a conversation with journalists, said that he had prepared a plan for the "victory of Ukraine" Among four main directions, according to Zelensky, "a powerful package of forcing Russia to end the war diplomatically." It is planned to present the plan in September to US President Joe Biden, as well as to hand over to presidential candidates Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.
