[Compiled by Chen Chengliang/Comprehensive Report] The latest list of U.S. military aid to Ukraine includes the "Ground-based Small Diameter Bomb" (GLSDB) with a range of 150 kilometers, which will enable Ukraine to improve its air defense and strike capabilities, and the main tanks aided by the West will also be in place one after another.

However, German Chancellor Scholz claimed on the 4th that he had reached a consensus with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that weapons aided by the West would not be used to attack Ukrainian territory.

But he pointed out that Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin should bear full responsibility for the war.

In an interview with the German newspaper Bild, Scholz said that Zelensky agreed not to use tanks and weapons provided by Germany or the West to attack Russian territory.

"We've reached a consensus on that," he said.

Russian President Vladimir Putin attended the commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Stalingrad Defense War on the 2nd. The city also warned that once again threatened by the German Panther tank, Russia will respond not limited to armored vehicles.

In this regard, Shots accused Putin of making "ridiculous historical comparisons" and said that he had clearly expressed his different views in the phone call with Putin.

Shots said bluntly: "I made it clear to Putin that Russia bears full responsibility for this war."

The US has been reluctant to provide Ukraine with long-range weapons such as the Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS), which has a range of about 300 kilometers.

The U.S. rejected the requests because it feared that the missiles could be used to strike deep targets in Russia's homeland, leading to an escalation of the situation.

To this end, Ukraine has repeatedly committed to responsibly and strategically using weapons provided by the United States to counter Russian aggression when needed.

Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov said on February 2 that Ukraine assured its Western partners that the weapons would not be used against targets in Russia.

But the New York Times last month quoted administration officials as saying that the Biden administration was considering assisting Ukraine in attacking Crimea, which was annexed by Russia in 2014.

This change in attitude shows that the U.S. government is gradually getting rid of its past restraint in aiding Uzbekistan in its fight against Russian aggression.

The United States will supply the Ground-Launched Small Diameter Bomb (GLSDB) with a range of about 150 kilometers.
