"This is Russia's aggressive war against Ukraine, which is a blatant violation of international law," NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said.

"And according to international law, Ukraine has the right to self-defense. And it also includes strikes against legitimate military targets, Russian military targets outside of Ukraine. That's international law, and of course, Ukraine has the right to do that to defend itself."

The title is essentially click bait, absolutely nothing changed. Random comments from a NATO secretary general don't change international law or contracts. They still can't use any of the weapons provided by other countries on Russian territory, because it was part of the deal(s) they were provided under.
