Biden's Long-Range Missile Approval for Ukraine Sparks Controversy

TL;DR Summary
In a significant escalation, President Joe Biden has authorized Ukraine to use US long-range missiles to strike inside Russia, crossing a "red line" set by Russian President Vladimir Putin, who warned it could lead to direct conflict with NATO. This decision also includes targeting North Korean troops allegedly in Russia, marking a potential first use of US weapons against North Korean forces since the Korean War. The move aims to create "facts on the ground" before President-elect Donald Trump takes office, amid a deepening crisis for Ukraine's military and ongoing global tensions.
