The NYT (
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/17/us/p ... siles.html) and Reuters (
https://www.reuters.com/world/biden-lif ... 024-11-17/) report that Biden has authorized Ukraine to strike Russia with long-range ATACMS missiles.
This outrageous decision by the Biden administration marks a significant escalation in U.S. support for Kiev, deliberately complicating the incoming Trump administration's approach to the conflict.
The move, just weeks before the transition of power, allows Ukraine to strike targets deep within Russian territory. In theory, this expanded capability could shift the conflict dynamics and pressure Russia to rethink its strategy. In reality, however, it will only complicate Ukraine's situation and push the doomsday clock closer to midnight—hopefully, not past it.
This decision is clearly designed to put the Trump administration in a challenging position. The new administration will have to navigate the consequences of this escalation while formulating its own policy on Ukraine. Trump has previously expressed a desire to end the conflict swiftly, but this latest development may limit his options—exactly what the American war hawks want.
The timing of this decision, coming during the transition period, proves that it's a blatant attempt by the Biden administration to shape the conflict's trajectory beyond its term. It is also designed to constrain the Trump administration's ability to pursue a dramatically different approach to the Ukraine situation.
