“The most important red line has been crossed already. And that was when the Russians entered Ukraine,” Mette Frederiksen says.

Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen called Monday for Ukraine’s allies to greenlight the use of donated weapons for long-range strikes against Russia.

“My suggestion is, let us end the discussion about red lines,” Frederiksen told Bloomberg in an interview that aired Monday. Ukraine’s benefactors had made a “mistake” by engaging in handwringing over Kyiv hitting targets inside Russia, she added, as doing so had given Moscow “too good a card in their hands.”

Arms-donating countries, particularly the U.S., have set restrictions on Ukraine’s use of their weapons in long-range strikes, due to fears of being dragged further into a conflict with Russia.

    Ukraine has been fighting with one hand tied behind their back from the beginning. What should have been a large coalition response has just been the Ukrainians going it alone, but with boxes of bullets sent their way.

      Russia has nukes. It’s not Lebanon or Palestine. The empire can’t just genocide hundreds of thousand of Russians.
