In the last few days, British long-range Storm Shadow missiles have been fired fairly deep into Russia.
The same has happened with American missiles. This is the first time in a thousand days that this has happened.
Keir Starmer at the G20 today said it's the right thing to do, because it puts Ukraine in the strongest possible position to win.
Now, it was interesting in Westminster today, listening to the Labour Government, the Conservative opposition, Democrats, everybody still seems to think that if we give Ukraine enough weaponry that somehow they are going to win this war.
And yet when I get outside of Westminster and talk to ordinary folk, I've not met anybody in my last month who thinks Ukraine is ever going to win.
And I do wonder, right at this time, whether it's the wise thing to do.
I worry about this, and I worry because I think the idea Ukraine's going to win, frankly, is for the birds.
I think the war has gone on for long enough that the casualties are massive.
I think all we're doing is helping to prolong a stalemate. That's my view.
And it has been actually for some time, but strategically. Donald Trump, in 59 days time will be in the White House.
He is committed to negotiating a peace settlement. No one quite knows what that might look like, but that is what he's committed to do.
Is the use of American and British long-range missiles going to help him in that process or make it more difficult?
And are we wise, at this very moment in time, to be allowing our missiles to be far deep into Russia?
