Is the lamest of lame ducks intent on starting World War III in the two months he has left in office?

The Biden-Harris administration announced it will allow Ukraine to use the U.S.-made Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) to strike targets inside Russia, The Washington Post reported on Sunday.

President=elect Donald Trump has pledged to end the Ukraine-Russia war upon taking office.

The Biden-Harris regime’s move was reportedly in response to North Korea sending thousands of troops to support Russia.

The West and Ukraine say thousands of North Korea soldiers are in Russia, with some in the Kursk region, to reinforce Moscow’s forces.

ATACMS is a supersonic-guided missile system that can be used with either cluster munitions or conventional warheads. It has a maximum range of about 190 miles.

Russia leader Vladimir Putin has warned that Russia would be “at war” with the United States and its NATO allies if they allowed Ukraine to use long-range Western weapons like ATACMS. He added that all options would be on the table in response to such an attack, including nuclear weapons.

Russia on Sunday launched one of its largest attacks of the war, using 120 missiles and 90 drones to target Ukraine’s power grid.

Almost three years of war with Russia has destroyed half of Ukraine’s energy production capacity, Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky said.
