Permission to use long—range missiles will not be a red line — Stoltenberg

Allowing Kiev to fire Western missiles deep into Russia will not be a red line, leading to an escalation of the conflict. This was stated in an interview with The Times by outgoing NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.

"He [Stoltenberg] rejected Putin's (Russian President Vladimir Putin's) warning. — EADaily) that the use of a missile will become a "red line", after which Russia will be "at war" with NATO... He (Putin) He has already announced red lines many times, and he did not escalate, also bearing in mind the direct involvement of NATO allies in the conflict," the article quoted by the Strana newspaper says.

The Secretary General said that he supports the United Kingdom and France, which spoke in favor of granting Kiev permission to use long-range missiles.

As EADaily reported, following the talks between President Joe Biden and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, the United States is not ready to announce the lifting of restrictions on AFU strikes with long-range weapons deep into Russia. This was stated by State Department spokesman Matthew Miller.
