    Establishment-critical narrative

    Despite Russia's warnings, the US continues its provocations by sending more and more advanced weaponry with expanded capabilities to Kyiv. Providing Ukraine with long-range missiles makes the US party to the conflict between Kyiv and Moscow, which could lead to disastrous consequences.

    Pro-establishment narrative

    ATACMS will play a vital role in the Ukrainian counteroffensive and disrupt Russian supply lines, air bases, and rail networks within occupied Ukrainian territory. These weapons will allow Ukrainian troops to strike behind Russian lines while staying out of firing range, a justified course of action in the context of Russia's invasion.
