Pentagon has restricted Ukraine from striking Russian territory – WSJ

Posted on August 23, 2025 by

The reported move comes during President Trump’s renewed push for peace talks

The Pentagon has blocked Ukraine from striking deep inside Russia with American-supplied missiles, the Wall Street Journal reported Saturday, citing US officials.

According to the paper, the Department of Defense has been preventing Kiev from firing long-range ATACMS missiles since late spring. On at least one occasion, Washington reportedly turned down a Ukrainian request to hit a target on Russia’s internationally recognized territory.

The WSJ linked the policy shift to President Donald Trump’s effort to “entice” Moscow during peace talks.
