The Guardian: Britain Secretly Allowed Ukraine To Fire Storm Shadow Missiles At Targets In Russia

The decision will not be announced publicly.

The British government has approved a decision to allow Ukraine to use Storm Shadow missiles transferred by the British side against targets deep inside Russian territory, but this will not be announced publicly at a meeting between British Prime Minister Keir Starmer and American leader Joe Biden on September 13 in Washington.

The Guardian writes about this, citing sources in the British government.

According to the publication, the leaders will discuss the war in Ukraine and ways to end it as part of a broad foreign policy discussion but do not intend to focus on specific weapons, since the conversation will be strategic.

A press conference is not planned following the meeting. New conversations are possible in the next two days after the talks to inform key allies in Europe about the progress of the discussion.

The publication's sources claim that the joint visit of the head of the British Foreign Secretary David Lammy and the US Secretary of State Antony Blinken to Kyiv on September 11 would not have happened without a positive decision on Storm Shadow.

During this visit, the head of the British Foreign Office said that Iran's supply of ballistic missiles to Russia had changed the strategic thinking of London and Washington.

It was Russian dictator Putin who went for escalation, the minister emphasized.
