"The White House's decision to send long-range missiles to Ukrainians is a grave mistake. The consequences of this step, which was deliberately hidden from the public, will be of the most serious nature," he said in a statement. Ukrainian forces used US-supplied ATACMS missiles for the first time, inflicting heavy damage on two airfields in Russian-occupied areas, with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy saying on Tuesday that the weapons had"proven themselves".US President Joe Biden may consider a supplemental request of about $100 billion that would include defense aid for Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan, multiple sources familiar with the request told Reuters news agency.
Biden has been widely expected to ask Congress to pass a supplemental spending bill within days, as Washington responds to Israel-Palestine war while looking to continue to support Ukraine as it grapples with a Russian invasion.
