Ukraine's Push for Western Weapons: Escalating Tensions with Russia

The Ukrainian President, Zelensky, is advocating for the use of Western missiles to target military sites in Russia, gaining support from NATO and putting pressure on the White House. While the US has been the largest aid provider to Ukraine, there is a debate within the US government about allowing attacks on Russian territory.

However, Secretary of State Blinken has hinted at a possible reassessment of the ban. Russia, in response, suggests a peace conference hosted by China and warns against the use of Western weapons.

Ukraine's air defense system faces challenges countering the Russian threat, highlighting the need for comprehensive protection. Tensions continue to escalate as both sides accuse each other of disrupting peace efforts.
