Ukraine: Biden, US will not send medium range missiles

(ANSA) - WASHINGTON, MAY 30 - The US will not send (medium-range) missile systems to Kiev that can reach the Russian territory: President Joe Biden said this.

    In recent days, CNN had reported that the White House was preparing a new package of military aid that would also include medium / long-range missile systems.

   These are the Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS) and the HighMobility Artillery Rocket System, also known as HIMARS, a lighter version of the former but capable of firing the same type of ammunition.

    Both systems can launch rocket fires up to 300 kilometers from mobile vehicles at land targets.

So far beyond the Howitzers howitzers supplied so far, which have a maximum range of 25 kilometers, and the Javelin or Stinger anti-aircraft missile-tanks.
