On Western missile strikes on Russia

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:
[ColonelCassad] 1. As I wrote at the beginning of the SVO, we cannot avoid a remake of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
2. I have also written and continue to write since the beginning of the war - anything that lies below the threshold of using nuclear weapons can and will be used in Ukraine.
3. Warmongers do not accept their defeat so easily. Both in the war in Ukraine and in the recent elections in the USA.
So nothing unexpected is happening.
It would be surprising if this did not happen before the end of the war.
We are simply waiting to see what the response will be. And we are studying civil defense measures. Cruise and ballistic missiles have already flown in to our Sevastopol more than once.

Borrell: US Allows Kyiv to Launch Strikes 300km Deep into Russia
The United States has given the Kiev regime permission to strike 300 km deep into Russian territory, EU Foreign Policy Chief Josep Borrell said on November 18.
"The US administration has authorized the use of its missiles up to 300 km deep into Russian territory. This is not very far, but this is the decision of the US administration. Why they made this decision now and not earlier, I do not know," Borrell said at a press conference following a meeting of EU foreign ministers.
He also stated that the heads of the foreign ministries of the EU countries have not made a decision to lift restrictions on the use of Western weapons to strike deep into Russian territory and that each EU member country can make such a decision independently.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on November 17, the American newspaper The New York Times, citing informed sources, reported that outgoing US President Joseph Biden had for the first time authorized Ukraine to use long-range ATACMS missiles to strike Russian territory. Following this, the French newspaper Le Figaro wrote that the French and British authorities had made a similar decision.
On September 13, Russian President Vladimir Putin called the discussions on allowing the Ukrainian Armed Forces to use precision weapons for strikes deep into Russia a substitution of concepts. In reality, NATO countries are discussing whether they will directly participate in a conflict with Russia, the president emphasized. He noted that Russia will make decisions based on the threats that will arise for it.
On November 18, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, stated that Russia's response to the Kiev regime's use of long-range missiles for strikes deep into Russian territory would be adequate and tangible. The use of long-range missiles by Kiev would mean direct participation in the conflict by the United States and its satellites and would change the very essence of the conflict, Zakharova emphasized.
The situation remains in limbo for now, there is no official confirmation of Biden's decision, officials are holding a pause, apparently in order to see Moscow's reaction and make a decision, Regnum News Agency columnist Mikhail Zakharov noted earlier in his article.
