The White House spokeswoman said that no new decisions on long-range strikes on Russian territory should be expected after the meeting between Biden and Zelensky. Instead, it is possible that the leaders will discuss military assistance.

The White House said that it is not worth expecting an announcement that the United States will change its mind about long-range weapons strikes on the territory of Russia after today's meeting between the American and Ukrainian presidents, UNN reports.

"...we can expect that one of the conversations between the two leaders will be on this topic. There will be a broader discussion of the importance of the military assistance that we provide to Ukraine... but I don't expect there to be any new announcement on that particular action or decision at this meeting," White House spokesperson Karin Jean-Pierre said at a briefing, answering a question about Ukraine's desire to strike at Russian territory with long-range weapons and the U.S. position.
