Presidents Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin will speak in a video call Tuesday, the White House and Kremlin said, as tensions between the United States and Russia escalate over a Russian troop buildup on the Ukrainian border that's seen as a sign of a potential invasion. Biden will press U.S. concerns about Russian military activities on the border and “reaffirm the United States’ support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Saturday, confirming the planned call after first word came from Moscow. Putin will come to the call with concerns of his own and intends to express Russia's opposition to any move to admit Ukraine into the NATO military alliance. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said "the presidents will decide themselves” how long their talk will last. The last known call between the leaders was in July, when Biden pressed Putin to rein in Russia-based criminal hacking gangs launching ransomware attacks against the United States. Biden said the U.S. would take any necessary steps to protect critical infrastructure from such attacks.

“Biden”: Obama, Rice, etc.

This event will be recorded on both audio and video and become a huge National Embarrassment for the United States because Putin is not likely to be sympathetic to Dimentia Joe.

Yeah...I’m sure Putin will change his mind and back down from doing whatever he wants to do.

Biden is about to give his price for Putkn taking Ukraine. $100 million to Hunter should do the trick.

I hope you are wrong, but Ukraine would be a valuable reacquistion for Russia.
