“If circumstances evolve and change, we evolve and change in response so that Ukrainians can continue to defend their territory and sovereignty,” said Jonathan Feiner, Deputy National Security Advisor, at a meeting with journalists.
During the press conference, the official refused to comment on media reports that the United States had authorized Ukraine to conduct strikes deep into Russian territory using American ATACMS. But Feiner said that the United States continues to make “strategic decisions based on the situation on the battlefield.” In particular, the Deputy National Security Advisor drew attention to a significant escalation by Russia in recent days.
“The United States has made it clear that it will respond to this,” Finer said in a statement.
