As U.S. President Joe Biden is about to leave office, he is reversing his policies one after another and has further strengthened arms support to Ukraine, which is struggling to prevent a Russian invasion.
President Biden announced the launch of ATACMS (a surface-to-surface missile with a range of 300 km) supported by the United States.

Following the lifting of restrictions on attacks on the Russian mainland, the use of anti-personnel mines was also permitted this time.
US daily Washington Post (
WP
) reported on the 19th (local time), citing two officials, that “President Biden approved the supply of anti-personnel mines to Ukraine.”
President Biden completely banned the use of anti-personnel mines in areas other than the Korean Peninsula in June 2022.
The US policy of banning the use of anti-personnel mines outside the Korean Peninsula, implemented in 2014 during the Barack Obama administration, was abolished in January 2020 during the first term of US President-elect Donald Trump’s administration, but was revived by President Biden.
