According to information from US media, the Russian military is on the border with Ukraine ready for a possible invasion. However, nothing is certain.
According to media reports, the US government has intelligence information that Moscow is said to have ordered its military on the border with Ukraine to proceed with invasion plans.
This information from last week is said to have prompted US President Joe Biden to state that Russian President Vladimir Putin made the decision to attack, according to the New York Times and CBS, citing officials. However, the order does not mean that an invasion is certain, as Putin can always change his mind.
The intelligence information is also said to show that 40 to 50 percent of the more than 150,000 Russian soldiers on the Ukrainian border have gone into battle formation and could launch an attack within days, the New York Times wrote. Some of the troops are said to be Russian reservists who could form an occupation force after an invasion. According to the newspaper, the officials did not give any further details about the information, only that it was trustworthy.
Biden meets National Security Council
US President Biden met with his National Security Council on Sunday, according to the White House. The latest developments in connection with Russia’s military build-up on the border with Ukraine were discussed, it said. The White House did not provide any further information about the meeting. Biden, who is currently in the White House, announced at short notice that he would be going to the US state of Delaware, where his family lives. Only a short time later he surprisingly changed his plans again and now wanted to stay in the US capital Washington after all. The White House did not give any reasons for this.
The US Embassy in Moscow, meanwhile, has warned of threats of attacks against shopping malls, train stations, metro stations and other public places in major cities such as Moscow and St. Petersburg, as well as in areas along Russia’s border with Ukraine, citing media reports.
