A Pentagon spokesman said he was unaware of any «inevitable decisions» on the matter, so there was «nothing to announce.»
The Wall Street Journal previously wrote, citing sources from the number of US officials that the United States is preparing to approve the supply of ATACMS operational-tactical missile systems to Ukraine. According to sources, this issue will be resolved in the near future at the highest level in Washington, since the White House, which was previously skeptical, came to the conclusion that it is necessary to provide additional support to Ukraine.
However, months earlier, the White House's press secretary At home, Karine Jean-Pierre assured that Washington's position regarding the possibility of future deliveries of ATACMS ground-to-ground operational-tactical ballistic missiles to Ukraine has not changed.
