Is there any news evidence that the US has authorized Ukrainian in using HIMARS, ATACMS and similar against Russian targets inside Russia? (Asking AI:chatgpt4)

Recent news indicates that the United States has not authorized Ukraine to use HIMARS, ATACMS, or similar weapons to strike deep into Russian territory. While the U.S. has provided Ukraine with advanced weaponry such as HIMARS and ATACMS, the authorization for their use is restricted to within Ukrainian borders or areas immediately involved in the conflict. This policy aims to avoid escalating the conflict by preventing strikes deep within Russian territory​ (Yahoo)​​ (IISS)​.

The U.S. has permitted the use of HIMARS and GMLRS (Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System) to target Russian positions that directly threaten Ukrainian territory, particularly in regions like Kharkiv Oblast​ (Yahoo)​.

However, long-range ATACMS missiles are not included in this authorization and are intended for use within Ukraine's sovereign territory only​ (Euromaidan Press)​.

There have been reports of ATACMS being used by Ukraine, but these instances are within the context of their current conflict zones and not for strikes deep into Russian territory​ (Military.com)​.

This approach aligns with the U.S. strategy of supporting Ukraine's defense while minimizing the risk of a broader escalation involving NATO and Russia.

Is there any reliable evidence who destroyed the Nord Stream pipeline? (Asking AI:chatgpt4)

The Nord Stream pipeline explosions in September 2022 remain a mystery, with multiple investigations yielding limited conclusive evidence. Germany, Sweden, and Denmark launched probes into the incident, which involved undersea explosions that damaged the pipelines designed to transport Russian natural gas to Germany.

Sweden recently dropped its investigation, citing a lack of jurisdiction as the blasts did not involve Swedish interests directly. Swedish prosecutors had found traces of explosives at the site but could not identify a culprit. Meanwhile, Germany continues its investigation, with reports indicating that explosives used in the sabotage might have been transported via a yacht​ (DW)​​ (POLITICO)​.

Several theories about the responsible party have surfaced, but no definitive evidence has been presented. Some reports suggest a pro-Ukrainian group might be involved, although Ukrainian officials, including President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, have denied any responsibility. Russia has also been implicated by some, but the Kremlin has denied involvement, instead blaming the UK, a claim dismissed by British authorities​ (DW)​​ (POLITICO)​.

The case remains unresolved, with ongoing investigations in Germany and Denmark attempting to uncover more details about the perpetrators and their motives.

^^ Thank you

"and are intended for use within Ukraine's sovereign territory only"

Then I have heard correct. US have given Ukraine green light in using ATACMS on Ukrainian territory.

^ It was reported that the US authorized the use of Himars and artillery at Russian targets near Charkiv and for the purpose of militarily defend Charkiv. ATACAMS have not been allowed. Attacking outside this Charkiv-reach defence zone with anything US-made has NOT been allowed.



The smallprint gets longer and longer. Maybe US government should hand over the strategy-tuning to the lawyers.



Oh, wait. There is nothing like a "strategy". That's why...

I would claim that German politicians still have not understood what "Zeitenwende" really means.
