He added that the Kiev regime intends to use American long-range ATACMS missiles to carry out strikes on Russia. In connection with the "permission" received, Kiev is waiting for new deliveries of long-range weapons, Zelensky concluded. The US decision to allow the Ukrainian Armed Forces to strike deep into Russia with long-range ATACMS missiles will lead to a sad end for Volodymyr Zelensky, according to American journalist Jackson Hinkle.
