White House Says Russian Invasion Still ‘Imminent’ After Ukraine Urges Calm

The White House said Tuesday it stands by the U.S. assessment that a Russian invasion of Ukraine is imminent.

Press secretary Jen Psaki was asked to respond to Ukrainian officials telling residents that an attack is not imminent and that there is no reason for people to panic.

“Well, no one can get into the mind of President [Vladimir] Putin or Russian leadership,” Psaki said. “We all know that is the case. What we have seen is a range of preparations, including 100,000 troops at the border, bellicose rhetoric and actions, as we’ve talked about in here, including false flag operations to try to spread misinformation throughout the region and even the world, setting up the predicate for an invasion.”

Psaki said that the preferred path forward is diplomacy but that officials have “certainly seen aggressive actions and preparations increasing at the border.” (Read more from “White House Says Russian Invasion Still ‘Imminent’ After Ukraine Urges Calm” HERE)
