Zelensky, who is looking for someone like a father figure in Biden to help him out from this war in Ukraine. For that reason, he is asking for long-range missiles permission to target inside Russia. He is right in making this request to Biden.
To summarize what happened in Ukraine was Russia is the aggressor inside a sovereign Ukraine. Putin has since 2014 been trying to put a stop to Ukraine joining NATO. Neither Putin nor any of the Russian allies including Belarus, or Georgia for that matter can stop Ukraine from joining NATO if it wishes so.
Biden should see Ukraine as a sovereign and independent country and any foreign aggressor including that of Russia inside Ukraine should be seen as an act of aggression and that must be emphasized to Russia. Russia has long been acting as a roadblock vetoing any UNSC resolution on Russia.
Given the above fact, Ukraine should receive unconditional support from the US and its allies including NATO.
Any destabilization of the balance of power in the region would not only be harmful to Ukraine but also to the EU and threaten the US as well as other powerful allies of Russia including China, Iran, and the list will go on if there is an escalation of aggression by Russia attacking nuclear facilities in Ukraine.
US should see this as a real threat from Russia against Ukraine.
