KCII News spoke with U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley about Ukraine’s request for weapons from the U.S. “I think the main thing right now is that Russia’s got a sanctuary to take their planes to the air and shoot missiles into Ukraine. And if we were to allow Ukraine to use our missiles to shoot back to these sanctuaries, where these airplanes are. We could stop a lot of the killing that Russia is giving.” Ukraine failed to secure access to longer-range weapons and the right to strike into Russian territory despite repeated requests, at the US air base of Ramstein, Germany, on Friday, September 6th, in front of more than 50 nations, with Washington refusing to change policy.
