Spearheaded by the U.K., a growing number of Ukraine's allies are now allowing the weapons they've supplied the country to be fired into Russian territory, giving Kyiv a potential boost on the battlefield amid hopes of blunting Russia's offensive on Kharkiv.
Less dramatic, but just as consequential, is the fact that Ukraine's also been gathering momentum in other ways that could allow it to protect its independence, achieve a favorable outcome to the war, and embark on a reconstruction program that will firmly link it to the Euro-Atlantic community.
Overall, Western allies are finally making good on their declaration to support Ukraine for “as long as it takes,” handing Kyiv substantial economic assistance, weapons, security deals and command freedom on the battlefield. Ukraine's prospects look better now than they have since early 2023—prospects that will likely get a further boost at this week's Ukraine Recovery Conference in Berlin.
