This comes after US President Joe Biden called on US President Joe Biden to target military sites in Russia using US-made long-range weapons. “This comes in the wake of Ukraine’s decision to authorize it. This has also led to a rise in bond yields following the recent softening,” Khemka wrote in a note.
