Since the location of the attack is hundreds of kilometers away from the Ukrainian-Russian border, the Engel base is only a few hours’ drive from the capital Moscow; It can go deep into the Russian border, and even directly attack Moscow, which has aroused heated discussions.

According to a CNN report, although Kirby, the White House National Security Council spokesperson and strategic communications coordinator, did not confirm that the attack was launched by Ukraine on the 7th, he emphasized that the United States did not "encourage" or "permit" such attacks. We respect Ukraine's decisions on the battlefield, but we will not encourage escalation of the conflict. Our job is to help Ukraine to protect itself, including providing resources and weapons. As for how and where to use them, they make their own decisions. It is theirs. Sovereignty, we are different from the Russians, we respect the sovereignty of Ukraine."

However, he also said that any escalation of the conflict outside Ukraine would be very detrimental to the national security of the United States. "The United States has opened a dialogue with Ukraine and clearly expressed our concerns about the escalation of the conflict."
