Last volley before Trump's arrival: will Biden bend Storm Shadow rockets through the Russian Federation

Russia seizes territories in eastern Ukraine, and Joe Baiden has less time to help Kiev to achieve advantage. Donald Trump's future officials do not inspire optimism to strengthen the Armed Forces. Focus found out what the chances of sharp decisions of the American leader. US President Joe Biden is just over 2 months before his place is occupied by Republican Donald Trump. Baiden has less time to accelerate the supply of military assistance to Kiev to reflect the attack of Russia.

Ukraine's supporters urge the White House to abolish restrictions on long -range weapons and find other sources of funding for the war for Donald Trump's accession to the post, the British newspaper The Guardian writes. Joe Biden plans to meet Trump in the White House this week and ask him to continue Ukraine's support. Judging by the statements of the future Trump administration, they do not particularly want to continue to allocate money for war in Ukraine.

The probable candidate for the post of State Secretary of States Bill Hagherty says that Americans prefer to be spent on defense of the US sovereignty, not another country. After coming to Donald Trump, Ukraine will have to rely more on Europe. Meanwhile, the UK Prime Minister Kir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron intends to make the last desperate attempt to prevent Trump from reducing Ukraine's support, the sources of The Telegraph in the British government say.

The leaders of the United Kingdom and France will discuss how to persuade US President Joe Baiden to allow Ukraine to attack Storm Shadow missiles in Russia. In London, Biden will give approval that Kiev has sought for several months to maintain its foreign policy heritage. The winged Storm Shadow missiles have already been supplied by the Armed Forces, but with restrictions on strikes only within Ukrainian borders.

The details of the new arrangements are unknown, but it is assumed that Ukraine will allow missiles to defeat Russian troops near the border. In a conversation with focus, Ukrainian political scientist Volodymyr Fesenko recalled the US technological obligation to ensure that British missiles are guided by the US. The accurate hit is provided by American satellites, and for this reason the use of Storm Shadow must be coordinated with Washington.

Biden will probably go to this adventure if Russia strikes rocket strokes on Ukrainian nuclear power plants. It is not worth expecting a decision about Storm Shadow without obvious reasons. "I suspect that informal warnings were voiced by both a measure and Russia. The Americans were made it clear that in the case of permission from the Russian territory. NATO, of course, will not hurt, but other asymmetrical steps are possible: supplying to Hussites anti -ship missiles and more .

But Washington also warned about the inability of the Ukrainian NPP infrastructure, "the expert said. The collapse of the Ukrainian power system in winter due to the missile strokes of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will allow permission to use Storm Shadow missiles to strikes in military and energy facilities in Russia. So far, Russia is refrained from massive rocket attacks in Ukraine, which can also be a result of behind -the -scenes arrangements.

According to Vladimir Fesenko, in addition to providing a $ 6 billion military assistance package, you should not wait for other cardinal steps from Biden administration until January 20. The military expert of the Ukrainian Institute of the Future Ivan Stupak is given a different opinion. According to him, Baiden's sharp decisions are still there, but their likelihood is a maximum of 40%. If the Storm Shadow rocket is approved, they may include a new state aid package from the state.

"Objectively speaking, a lot of time is lost. The US president may not have a good appearance, not be the most irritated person in the world, but indecision does not say goodbye. The consequences of Biden's policy will still respond to the world not only in the war in Ukraine. Trump will have Important crisis and return the US title of world police, " - explains the analyst's focus.

The experience of the Republican in the post of President from 2017 to 2021 will allow him to navigate faster in the internal and external situation, added Stupak. Military warehouses should become the primary goals for British missiles in Russia. About six large facilities are located near the Ukrainian border, which gives the opportunity to supply the occupation troops rapidly. Equally important places are plants for the production of explosives and aerodromes.

The Baltimore Large Air Base is located under Voronezh, from there the Su-34 aircraft fly from there and bombing Ukrainian cities with managed airbugs. "Despite the fact that 90% of the Russian aviation is withdrawn from the Ukrainian border, it still remains 10% where you can go. I would like to get the staff with Russian generals with the help of Storm Shadow, but it is unlikely that partners are unlikely," Stupak summarized.
