French foreign minister says no limits on support for Ukraine in war with Russia

French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot stated that Western allies should not impose limits on support for Ukraine against Russia. He mentioned that Ukraine could use French long-range missiles in self-defense but did not confirm if they have been used yet. In Ukraine, over 40% of territory gained in the Kursk region has been lost due to Russian counterattacks. Russia has deployed around 59,000 troops to the area since Ukraine's surprise incursion in August. Meanwhile, President Vladimir Putin signed a law allowing soldiers to erase debts by enlisting to fight in Ukraine. He also claimed Russia has enough experimental missiles for continued testing, despite international concerns over their use.
