The U.S. has expanded permission for Ukraine to use American-made weapons against targets in Russia, not limited to the Kharkiv region. This doesn't represent a policy change, as Biden previously allowed strikes near the border. However, long-range attacks deep into Russia remain prohibited. U.S. officials confirm this aligns with National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan's statement about Ukraine's right to defend against cross-border attacks.
