Speaking in Kyiv during a press conference, Blinken was asked about recent Ukrainian complaints that a Washington ban meant Ukraine was unable to attack Russian forces as they were building up before crossing the border into Kharkiv Oblast.
"We've not enabled or encouraged strikes outside of Ukraine, but ultimately, Ukraine has to make decisions for itself about how it's going to conduct this war," he said.
Do they think this might cause Russia to use new tactics with this as justification? If there ever was a hard line "no" on the issue its definitely dissipated. Now we are kind of just saying "Its your choice, but I wouldn't do it".... like telling a private not to finance a Mustang at 35% APR

Probable Mass ATACMS Missile Strike Hits Russian Airfield in Crimea
The Kremlin said all the US-made long-range missiles were shot down, but the claim was debunked by big fires burning for hours at Belbek airfield and official warnings of cluster munitions.

Still image from a video made public by the Ukrainian military purported showing missiles striking the Russia-controlled military airfield in Belbek, Crimea. The video seemed to have been made public as a response to Russian claims the early morning’s missile strikes on the airfield by Ukraine failed utterly.
Powerful explosions hit the main base of Russian military aviation in Crimea in the early hours of Wednesday and set fires burning for hours, in long-range strikes the Kremlin said were American ATACMS missiles fired by Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) gunners.
Local social media followed by regional officials reported more than twenty explosions of varying intensity audible in the vicinity of Belbek airfield beginning shortly before 2 a.m. Moscow time and lasting about ten minutes.
Russian officials in the occupation authority in the Kremlin-occupied Crimea in early statements said Ukrainian forces had launched long-range missiles at Belbek airfield but all the Ukrainian weapons were shot down.
The military analysis platform OSINTechnical wrote: “Based on the FIRMS data, Ukraine conducted a successful ATACMS strike overnight on Russia’s Belbek Airbase. Multiple [satellite] passes show a massive fire encompassing the southern flightline, likely fed by burning fuel or munitions.”
