The White House National Security Council was forced to issue a hasty denial late Thursday of a report that President Biden warned Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that a Russian invasion of his country was almost certain and that he should be ready for a “sack” of the capital city Kiev.

The jarring military forecast wasn’t mentioned in official statements from the White House or Zelensky, but was relayed to CNN by an unnamed Ukrainian official.

“A Russian invasion is now virtually certain once the ground freezes, Biden said to Zelensky, a senior Ukrainian official told [CNN reporter Matthew Chance],” tweeted fellow CNN reporter Alexander Marquardt.

“Kyiv could be ‘sacked,’ Russian forces may attempt to occupy it, ‘prepare for impact’, Biden said, according to this official,” Marquardt went on.

Moments later, National Security Council spokesperson Emily Horne described the report as “completely false.”

"President Trump made it an issue, because it was as plain as day, that it’s resulting energy dependence could be a weapon that Russia could use against NATO. Putin has been doing just that with former Soviet States for years - it is regular practice each Winter."

Biden withdrew American opposition. Seems that the world may already be starting to pay the price.

Paying the price.. Maybe just an honest 10% for the big guy.??

I will be surprised if Russia invades.

There’s been a deal for years. It’s called the Minsk Agreement. So far, Ukraine has refused to implement it.

“Maybe Putin wants to sack the Ukrainian Government and replace it to one of his liking?”

Of course he does.
