Part 2/10:
One of the most contentious issues circulating is the Biden White House's decision to authorize long-range strike weapons for Ukraine, including advanced missile systems like the AGM-84H/KSLM. Critics argue that this move appears to be driven less by strategic necessity and more by political calculation, aimed at complicating potential negotiations with Russia or undermining a future Trump administration.
This decision is particularly notable given that the U.S. had largely refrained from supplying such capabilities earlier in the conflict, citing fears over escalation. Many view the recent approval as vindictive, possibly orchestrated to trap future administrations into a more dangerous quagmire, or to provoke a more aggressive Russian response.
