Putin said that Russia would deploy intermediate and shorter range missiles and blamed the West for that: Russia is capable of responding to any existing or newly emerging threats, not with words, but through military-technical measures. An example of this is our decision to abandon the unilateral moratorium on...

Macron says Europe must develop its own intermediate-range ballistic missiles (IRBMs) like Russia’s Oreshnik or comparable long-range strike weapons. Macron says Russia’s recent Oreshnik strike on Lviv is a "clear signal" and a demonstration that Europe is within range. He stressed the need to accelerate efforts under the existing European Long-Range Strike Approach (ELSA) initiative, which was launched in 2024 by France, Germany, Poland, and later joined the UK, Italy, Sweden and the Netherlands. Macron argues that developing these capabilities collectively will enhance Europe's credibility, strengthen nuclear deterrence and respond to the shifting balance from Russia's recent deployment of both nuclear weapons and Oreshniks in Belarus. Macron argues that while it’s necessary to pool resources for European long-range systems rivalling the Oreshnik, France is capable to providing key technologies for the project through the know-how it has acquired by fielding S2/S3 IRBMs until 1996 and developing its own submarine-launched ballistic missiles (SLBMs) since the 1960s. The Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty, bilateral U.S.-Soviet agreement that banned all ground-launched ballistic and cruise missiles with ranges of 500–5,500 km in Europe, was in place between 1987 and 2019. European NATO members (and the U.S. for its European deployments) adhered to this, avoiding new IRBM development or deployment. The treaty collapsed when the U.S. withdrew in 2019 in response to Russia not adhering to the treaty by developing IRBMs and cruise missiles with 1000 km such as 9M729. Macron has now made it clear that Europe’s mission to speed up its own IRBM and long-range cruise missiles must be sped up significantly. It remains to be seen whether Europe will heed his advice

☝️The use of long-range, Western-made precision weapons to strike Russian territory would mean that NATO countries, the US, and the EU are at war with Russia. “We are not talking about authorizing or prohibiting the Kiev regime from striking Russian territory—this is already being done with the help of unmanned aircraft and other means. However, when we are talking about the use of long-range, Western-made precision weapons, that is a completely different story. The fact is, and any expert from our country or the West will confirm this, the Ukrainian army is not able to operate such weapons on its own. Their effective use is only possible with targeting intelligence from satellites, which Ukraine does not have. This is data that can only come from US or EU satellites—in other words, from NATO satellites. That is the first point. The second, and perhaps the key point, is that only NATO military personnel can program the flight missions for these missile systems; Ukrainian servicemen cannot do this. Therefore, this is not about allowing the Kiev regime to strike Russia with these weapons or not. It is about deciding whether NATO countries are becoming directly involved in a military conflict or not. If such a decision is made, it would mean nothing other than the direct participation of NATO countries, the US, and the EU in the war in Ukraine. This, of course, significantly changes the very essence of the conflict. It would mean that NATO countries, the US, and the EU are at war with Russia. And if that is the case, then, bearing this in mind, we will make the appropriate decisions based on the threats that would be posed to us” - President Putin
