New Delhi: The Russia-Ukraine war started over land possession. When Russia occupied many places in Ukraine, Ukraine also retaliated. Ukraine, along with America and other allies, captured 1000 square kilometers of land in the Russian area of ​​Kursk. Now America has given Ukraine permission to use long range weapons against Russia. But the question is, why did the Biden administration take this decision? Why was green signal not given for the use of long range weapons earlier? Defense experts believe that there are many reasons behind this. One reason could be that Joe Biden does not want Donald Trump to get the credit for ending the war. However, this decision could strengthen the Democrats before the presidential elections. The second reason is that Joe Biden wants to put a moral pressure on Russia as soon as he leaves.
In fact, America wants Ukraine to continue occupying the Kursk area until the negotiation table is set to end the war. Experts believe that the moral defeat of any big country is considered when a small or weak country brings it to the table for negotiation. However, Russia will not agree that in the talks, Ukraine has to give up the land occupied by Kursk in exchange for the land. Ukraine has captured 1000 square kilometers of Kursk area of ​​Russia while Russia has captured Donetsk of Ukraine.
Why did America take this step?
According to experts, Russia is continuing its operation to capture more and more land. This is the reason why America wants to put a threat of long range weapon on Russia to maintain Ukrainian occupation of Kursk. According to the report, about 11,000 North Korean soldiers are present to help Russia to liberate Kursk from Ukrainian occupation. America wants Ukraine to retain its occupation of Kursk so that when this war is decided on the negotiating table in the future, Ukraine would have something to negotiate. America wants the moral defeat of a powerful country like Russia in exchange for land. However, experts believe that Russia will not come to the negotiating table until it regains the land occupied by them.

Is America maintaining mental pressure on Russia?
This is the first time since the Second World War, when soldiers of another country are present on Russian soil. America has approved the use of long-range weapons only to maintain Ukraine’s hold on Kursk. In a way, this is an American attempt to create mental pressure on Russia. In the era of hybrid warfare, more emphasis is given on non-contract war. That means long range weapons and drones are used the most. Ukraine is still in the war because of America and its allies. Now long range missiles can also increase the scope of this war, the possibility of which has also been expressed by Russia.
Russia will give a befitting reply
Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova has made clear Russia’s intention on this step of America. He said that we do not know how much truth is there in this news, but one thing is clear that in view of the defeats of the Kiev government, its Western patrons are trying their best to increase the hybrid war started against Russia so that Moscow can be controlled. To achieve the illusory goal of inflicting a strategic defeat. But all this cannot affect Russia’s special military operation. President Vladimir Putin had clearly said on October 25 that NATO’s permission to use long range weapons would actually mean a nuclear attack. Russia has threatened nuclear attack in such a situation. Putin stressed that Ukraine cannot carry out such attacks on its own without NATO’s help.
American boots on the ground?
The war between Russia and Ukraine has been going on for almost three years. Russia has so many resources of its own compared to Ukraine that it is fighting this war alone, but Ukraine is with America and its allies. However, the American administration has already made it clear that there will be no boots on ground, that is, America itself will not directly send its troops into the fight. However, for the last three years, America and other NATO member countries have been helping Ukraine in every way. Ukraine is being helped with F-16, artillery guns, shells, anti-tank guided missiles and who knows what other weapons. Now America has approved the use of long range weapons. America was already supplying these missiles to Ukraine but they were not used. Now America has given a green signal on its use also.
Russia is also ready for Ukraine’s increased power
After this step of America, now Ukraine has the power to hit inside Russia with this missile. ATACMS i.e. Army Tactical Missile System has a range of 300 kilometers and is a ballistic missile. Capturing its speed and destroying it will be the biggest challenge for Russia. However, Russia also has a hypersonic missile system which is its backbone. However, Donald Trump follows the policy of American First, what is the benefit to America. America has given millions of dollars in these three years, but till now it has not achieved anything and the whole of Ukraine has been destroyed. In such a situation, it is believed that the path to talks may open in the coming days.
