Joe Biden: Possible Transfer of ATACMS Missiles to Ukraine “Still in the Game”

President of the U.S.A Joe Biden said that the issue of a possible transfer of ATACMS missiles to Ukraine “is still in the game.” About this he informed in a comment to journalist Alex Rofoglu.

According to him, the increase in Russian strikes with missiles and drones on Kyiv “is not unexpected.”

“Therefore, we must continue to give Ukraine everything it needs,” Biden said.

When asked whether it is time to transfer ATACMS ballistic missiles to Ukraine, he replied “it’s still in the game” – this means that the issue is still relevant and being discussed.

That is, Biden did not confirm, but did not deny the intention to transfer this type of missiles to Ukraine.

REFERENCE. ATACMS is an American operational-tactical ballistic missile system. The M142 HIMARS, M270 MLRS and MARS II launchers are designed to launch missiles. Various modifications of ATACMS have a firing range of 165 to 310 km. So far, Ukraine has received shells for HIMARS that hit 70-80 km.
