Virtual Media Briefing: Update on the Russia-Ukraine War—Will U.S. Long-Range Missiles Change the Equation?

Max Boot, Liana Fix & Liana Fix

CFR experts discuss the implications of President Joe Biden authorizing Ukraine to use U.S. long-range missiles against targets inside of Russia, and the prospects for the Ukraine-Russia war under President-Elect Donald Trump.

LABOTT: Thanks, Isabelle. Thank you, everyone, for joining us to discuss the implications of President Biden’s decision to let Ukraine strike targets on Russian soil with U.S.-made longer-range missiles. And we have another decision this morning about anti-personnel landmines.

So let’s talk about what this means for the ongoing Ukraine-Russia war. Will this change the equation? And if so, how? And how will this affect the transition to a Trump presidency in any policy continuity or change?

I have a really terrific panel to discuss this: Max Boot, the Jeane Kirkpatrick senior fellow for national security studies at the Council on Foreign Relations and also the author of a fantastic new biography on Ronald Reagan called Reagan—it’s a wonderful Christmas present, just saying; Liana Fix, fellow for Europe at the Council on Foreign Relations; and Charlie Kupchan—or, I should say Charles, but I’ll refer to him as Charlie—senior fellow, Council on Foreign Relations.
