"Despite all my respect for every country and, of course, for our partners in Ireland – we need permission to use long-range weapons precisely from those countries that give us this long-range weapon, it depends on them," Zelenskyy said.

He stressed that this does not depend on a coalition of all friendly partners – it depends on "very specific states": the United States, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany.

"Today, only these four countries either provide or are capable of providing the long-range weapons that can help us push the Russian Federation out of our territory and save the lives of civilians," the president said.

They are only asking to target places that are being used to actively attack them though.

Are they? Because I see Ukraine using drones against infrastructure and sending them against the City of Moscow itself. That isn't wrong of them however it does lead to legitimate questions about where exactly they would strike with other weapons.

Yeah they've been very upfront about their targets. They want to attack places that are actively being used to attack them
