The US will face serious problems if they send long-range missiles to Kyiv, which Ukraine will use against Russia, former CIA analyst Larry Johnston stated in an interview with the YouTube channel Judging Freedom.
“It seems the United States doesn’t want to get caught in a trap, as they have realized that if they give Ukraine… missiles, the Russians… won’t let us off the hook, and we’ll pay a high price,” the expert shared his opinion.
As previously stated by Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin, the US believes that sending long-range missiles to Ukraine will not be a game-changer in the conflict, despite Kyiv’s frequent requests for this type of weaponry. Most Russian military aircraft are out of range even for long-range weapons, he reminded.

Moscow has repeatedly emphasized that arms supplies to Ukraine hinder a settlement and directly involve NATO countries in the conflict. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov warned that any cargo containing military equipment and ammunition for Ukraine’s armed forces will become a legitimate target for the Russian Aerospace Forces.
