LONDON (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Keir Starmer will meet U.S. President Joe Biden for talks on Friday on the next steps in supporting Ukraine, centring on whether to allow Western missiles to be used to hit targets in Russia.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has been pleading with allies for months to let Ukraine fire Western missiles including long-range U.S. ATACMS and British Storm Shadows deep into Russia to limit Moscow's ability to launch attacks.
