      Ukraine doesn’t want to target Moscow. They are not like Russia, they go after actual military targets, not civilians. They have been using their homebuilt drones for long enough inside Russia to show their priorities.

          It has a high symbolic value but it’s not very valuable as a military target. Better to wipe out a bunch of fuel trucks and tanks and soldiers than a handful of bureaucrats in a stationary palace.

              The main benefit it would provide would be a morale boost. It wouldn’t bring Ukraine any closer to removing the Russian occupiers or slowing their attacks.

        Sorry, these new US weapons take some getting used to. We’ll definitely get it right next time. Promise
