Polish President Andrzej Duda said on Monday that the US decision to allow Ukraine to use US-made weapons to strike deep into Russian territory could be a decisive moment in the war. This was reported by Reuters, according to UNN.
This decision was very necessary... Russia sees that Ukraine enjoys strong support and that the West's position is unwavering and decisive. This is a very important, potentially decisive moment in this war
He also criticized Germany for saying it would not coordinate its policies with the United States and expressed disapproval of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz's phone call with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin last Friday.
“Germany may be looking for an opportunity, as the German press points out, to reach some kind of agreement with Russia to return to energy contracts and to be able to buy energy resources from Russia again,” Duda said.
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk also criticized Scholz, saying that “no one will stop Putin with phone calls.
“Russia is brutally attacking Ukraine, and one of the leaders of the free world, one of the leaders of the West, a large European country, the strongest economy in Europe, is negotiating with the aggressor. I am absolutely sure that this was a mistake on the international political front,” he emphasized.

The New York Times reports that US President Joe Biden has authorized Ukraine to use long-range missiles to strike Russian territory.
According to U.S. officials, the weapons are likely to be used initially against Russian and North Korean troops to protect Ukrainian forces in the Kursk region of western Russia.
France, which has provided Ukraine with long-range missiles, made it clear on Monday that allowing Ukraine to strike military targets on Russian territory remains an option on the agenda.
