RFK Jr. urges Biden not to approve long-range missiles for Ukraine: 'Reckless escalation' | 14 Sept 2024 | Robert F. Kennedy Jr. slammed Joe Biden's administration for continuing to provide Ukraine with long-range missiles on Saturday, arguing it was a major escalation of the conflict. Kennedy called out both Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken in a statement on X, formerly Twitter. He made the comment in relation to reporting that the U.S. is set to approve Ukraine using long-range missiles to strike inside Russia. "Secretary Blinken, President [sic] Biden - STOP IT! Stop this reckless escalation. I say this not as a political partisan, but simply as a citizen of the world," Kennedy wrote. Russian President Vladimir Putin has said his regime will "take appropriate decisions based on the threats."
