NATO called for transferring long-range missiles to Ukraine.
The NATO Parliamentary Assembly recommends transferring medium-range missiles to Ukraine to strengthen its defense capabilities and deter the aggressor, said the head of the Ukrainian delegation to the Assembly, People's Deputy Yegor Chernev.
According to Chernev, the resolution provides for the possibility of transferring ballistic missiles with a range of 1000 to 5500 kilometers, capable of hitting targets deep in strategic territory.
'The Ukrainian delegation managed to convince our partners of the necessity of including this item in the final text of the resolution. This is an important step towards obtaining this type of weapon,' Chernev said.
He emphasized that the resolution is an initial legal instrument that will allow NATO member countries to make decisions regarding the transfer of this weapon to Ukraine.
Chernev also reminded that a resolution was previously adopted recommending Alliance countries to allow Ukraine to strike strategic targets in Russia.
'We hope for a positive decision this Time as well,' Chernev concluded.
It was previously reported that WSJ revealed new targets for Ukraine regarding Storm Shadow and ATACMS.
