埃馬紐埃爾·馬克龍和奧拉夫·舒爾茨一直小心翼翼地避免與俄羅斯的緊張局勢升級，但在 5 月 28 日星期二，兩人都在對烏克蘭的軍事支持方麵邁出了新的一步。在法德部長理事會會議上，法國總統首次同意允許基輔襲擊俄羅斯領土上的軍事目標，而德國總理則對這一問題采取了更為謹慎但新穎的態度。
“我們必須允許 [烏克蘭人] 壓製發射導彈的軍事基地，烏克蘭正在從這些軍事基地發動攻擊“我們不應該允許他們襲擊俄羅斯，”馬克龍在對德國進行國事訪問的最後一天，在柏林附近的梅塞貝格城堡舉行的新聞發布會上說。“但我們不應該允許他們觸及俄羅斯的其他目標，顯然還有民用設施，”他補充道。“變化的是，俄羅斯已經在一定程度上調整了其做法，”這位法國總統辯解道。他使用地圖來支持自己的立場，指出俄羅斯正在從自己的領土而不是從被占領土轟炸哈爾科夫市及其周邊地區：“如果我們告訴[烏克蘭人]‘你們不得到達導彈發射點’，實際上，我們是在告訴他們，‘我們正在向你們提供武器，但你們無法自衛。’
雖然德國仍然拒絕向基輔運送遠程金牛座導彈，但肖爾茨也為柏林轉移到前線的坦克襲擊俄羅斯領土打開了大門。“烏克蘭完全有機會在國際法框架內這樣做，”他說。 “我們必須明確表示，烏克蘭正遭受攻擊，但有能力自衛。”
弗拉基米爾·普京的威脅
數周以來，這個問題一直困擾著烏克蘭的盟友，盡管西方國家對俄羅斯提供的武器有所限製，但烏克蘭總統澤連斯基仍多次呼籲對俄羅斯領土進行打擊。“目前我們的政策沒有改變。我們不鼓勵或允許使用美國提供的武器襲擊俄羅斯境內，”美國國家安全委員會發言人約翰·柯比在馬克龍宣布這一消息後評論道。另一方麵，北約秘書長延斯·斯托爾滕貝格周一在保加利亞索非亞的北約議會大會上表示，北約敦促西方國家取消“束縛烏克蘭人一隻手，使他們很難進行防禦”的限製。
Macron ready to allow Ukraine to 'neutralize' Russian military sites with French missiles
'What has changed is that Russia has adapted its practices somewhat,' justified the French president.

Emmanuel Macron and Olaf Scholz have always been careful to avoid escalation with Russia, but on Tuesday, May 28, both took a new step in their military support for Ukraine. At a French-German Council of Ministers meeting, the French president agreed for the first time to allow Kyiv to strike military targets on Russian territory, while the German chancellor made a more cautious, but new, approach on the issue.
"We must allow [the Ukrainians] to neutralize the military sites from which the missiles are fired, the military sites from which Ukraine is being attacked," said Macron, speaking at a press conference at Meseberg Castle, near Berlin, on the final day of his state visit to Germany. "But we should not allow them to touch other targets in Russia, and obviously civilian capacities," he added. "What has changed is that Russia has adapted its practices somewhat," the French president justified. Using maps to support his position, he noted that Russia was bombing the city of Kharkiv and its environs from its own soil and no longer from occupied territories: "If we tell [the Ukrainians] 'you're not allowed to reach the point from which missiles are fired,' actually, we are telling them, 'we are delivering you weapons, but you cannot defend yourselves."
While Germany is still refusing to deliver its long-range Taurus missiles to Kyiv, Scholz also opened the door for the tanks transferred by Berlin to the front to strike Russian territory. "Ukraine has every opportunity to do so, within the framework of international law," he said. "We have to say it clearly, it is under attack and it can defend itself."
Threats from Vladimir Putin
The issue has been troubling for Ukraine's allies for weeks, with President Volodymyr Zelensky repeatedly calling for the possibility of striking Russian territory, despite Western restrictions on the weapons they supply. "There's no change to our policy at this point. We don't encourage or enable the use of US-supplied weapons to strike inside Russia," commented John Kirby, spokesman for the United States National Security Council, after Macron's announcement. NATO, on the other hand, urged Western capitals to lift restrictions that "ties one hand of the Ukrainians on their back and makes it very hard for them to conduct defense," according to its secretary general, Jens Stoltenberg, speaking at the NATO Parliamentary Assembly in Sofia, Bulgaria on Monday.
