In a rare joint visit abroad, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and his British counterpart, David Lammy, met with the top leaders of Ukraine in Kyiv on Wednesday to discuss bolstering the Ukrainian military and whether to allow it to use imported long-range missiles to strike deep into Russia.
Blinken and Lammy said they had heard views from President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Ukraine’s desire to fire missiles provided by the United States and Britain at Russian targets well beyond the border between the two warring nations.
They told reporters at a news conference that they would convey what they had heard to U.S. President Joe Biden and Keir Starmer, the prime minister of Britain, and that those two leaders would discuss it when they meet in Washington on Friday.
