As the US continues to mull the possibility of sending lethal aid to Ukraine, NATO’s top commander has publicly endorsed the idea, insisting “all tools” should be considered, even if that decision would prove detrimental to Ukrainian stability.

On Sunday, OSCE observers reported new rounds of artillery fire outside Donetsk, despite the ceasefire signed last month. Speaking before the annual Brussels Forum that same day, General Philip Breedlove of NATO took the opportunity to voice his support for sending lethal aid to Ukraine.

“I’d not think that any tool of the US, or any other nation’s power should necessarily be off the table,” he said.

Even more surprising was his insistence that doing so would, ultimately, have a negative impact on the crisis.

“And so we, I think in the West should consider all of our tools in reply,” Breedlove said. “Could it be destabilizing? The answer is yes. Also, inaction could be destabilizing.”
