Renkovis stressed that NATO countries “should not be afraid” of escalation.

We must allow the Ukrainians to use weapons to attack military installations or the airports from which these operations are launched [uderzenia rakietowe na infrastrukturę – przyp. red.] – said the politician, citing Bloomberg.

According to the Latvian minister, a number of other NATO member states also believe that Ukraine should not have any restrictions on how weapons can be used in the war with Russia.
