Latvian FM confirms Ukraine can strike Russia with Western arms

Newly appointed Latvian Foreign Minister Baiba Braze said in an interview with European Pravda that Ukraine has received Western weapons from some partners with permission to strike Russian territory.

While Ukraine currently receives weapons from Western partners with public caveats to avoid strikes outside Ukraine’s borders, Braze said “this approach may change and is already changing.”

“There are already countries that have provided Ukraine with weapons without such restrictions,” the Latvian FM said, confirming such countries exist when asked.

Braze said that the lifting of restrictions in these cases was not announced publicly. “Of course, not everything is announced publicly, and it’s even better not to say it out loud for a while. The main thing is the impact on the battlefield,” she said.

According to Braze, Ukraine agreed with the allice who provided weapons that if there are objects from which Russia attacks Ukraine, then Ukraine has the right to strike back if these objects are located on Russian territory. Braze said that such use of weapons is permitted under international law.
