Ukraine being forced to fight with hands tied behind its back – debate in EP

17.09.2024 15:00

French Member of the European Parliament Nathalie Loiseau called on European countries to send Ukraine all the necessary assistance, including long-range missiles, and allow the Ukrainian Armed Forces to hit targets inside Russia.

She said this in Strasbourg during the debate on EU’s continued military and financial aid to Ukraine, reports an Ukrinform correspondent.

“The restrictions imposed on Ukraine to defend itself do not make any sense. They are forced to fight with their hands tied behind their back,” said Loiseau.

The lawmaker says she cannot grasp the reason why Ukraine is not allowed to hit locations from where it is being fired upon.

“What is Joe Biden thinking? Why reject long-range missiles? What was Olaf Scholz up to? Why do we turn a blind eye to sanctions evasion? Meanwhile, Moscow keeps buying goods from North Korea and Iran, regardless of price. Do we realize what that means?” Loiseau addressed MEPs.
