ZN.UA comment:
Earlier it was reported that the American decision to supply us with MLRS (this is the English abbreviation for MLRS – multiple rocket launchers; Multi-Launch Rocket Systems). That is, it was a class of weapons systems, not their specific type/brand. And specific types differ in ammunition with different distances: from 50-70 km (like our Smersh and Hurricane) to 270-300 km, which neither we nor in Russia and which are really very powerful, in terms of range and contactlessness. So Biden's statement can probably be interpreted as America's unwillingness to supply us with long-range MLRS/MLRS types. Apparently, the United States is afraid of entering into a direct military conflict with Russia because of the possible use of their missiles in Ukraine to hit objects in Russia.
