Politico: The Biden administration is "open" to delivering AGM-158 JASSM long-range cruise missiles to Ukraine.

No final decision has been made yet, but the administration is working through the complicated details now, one US official said.

RT @John_A_Ridge: Would note the F-16AM/BMs that Ukraine operates were certified to employ AGM-158A JASSM more than a decade ago with the M6.5 tape. https://twitter.com/Osinttechnical/status/1824102414263169461#m

@rineri239: Correct but not attempting to - I just had some time to dip in and out and can't maintain threads anymore. I had obligations and guests and being newly on Def's discord means there's just too much info to follow now.

RT @EHunterChristie: This is hugely to the discredit of President Biden and it harms the international reputation of the United States: Washington is SO afraid of Russia that it blocks a British decision to help Ukraine.
Deeply embarrassing. https://twitter.com/ColbyBadhwar/status/1823795048141701423#m

🇺🇲🇺🇦 "restrictions on the missiles’ use inside Russia are for now staying in place."

The provision of JASSM is something that has been long fought for. If they can't strike Russia though, it severely limits their utility. https://twitter.com/paulmcleary/status/1824101030319026605#m
