Сибига провел встречу с Блинкеном в Брюсселе: обсуждали ключевые вопросы, и результат оказался "оптимистичным".

This was announced by the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, as reported by Reuters.

Ukraine has long been urging its allies to allow long-range strikes on the Russian Federation using Western weaponry. Allies, including the United States, restrict the use of provided arms for deep strikes into Russia due to concerns about further escalation.

"We discussed the issue of long-range strikes and Euro-Atlantic integration. Here, we also remain cautiously optimistic," said Sibiga, commenting on his meeting with Blinken.

He also mentioned that his discussions in Brussels included military assistance.

"We have a clear picture - specific timelines, clear volumes - of what will be provided to Ukraine by the end of the year. This helps us to strategically plan our actions on the battlefield," the minister stated.

According to him, the assistance will encompass weapons and means for establishing agreements on arms production.

Several media outlets previously reported that, according to assessments from U.S. intelligence and the Pentagon, allowing Ukraine to carry out long-range strikes on Russian territory would bring more disadvantages than benefits to Kyiv, hence they recommended not to alter the current policy.
