Biden promises additional troops, sanctions if Russia invades Ukraine

The United States will send more troops to eastern European NATO members, including Poland or Romania, if Russian President Vladimir Putin moves forward with an invasion of Ukraine, President Joe Biden said Wednesday.

Biden said the U.S. would not withdraw troops from former Soviet countries to de-escalate tensions with Russia, as he answered questions at a news conference to mark his one-year anniversary in office. Tensions have been growing in recent months amid a Russian troop buildup near the Ukraine border.

“We won’t permanently station,” said Biden, “but the idea we’re not going to we’re going to actually increase troop presence in Poland or Romania, et cetera, if, in fact, he moves because we have a sacred obligation on Article 5 to defend those countries, they are part of NATO.”

If he keeps sending troops to Ukraine, who will protect Nazi Pelosi and her lame duck minions from evil conservatives? :whistle:

But what if Russia just invades a little? Didn't Joe say that would be OK? No more American lives in wars that aren't any of our business! The democrats are pushing communism harder than Putin is.

Will this conflict adhere to the 2003 standard for invading Iraq - do they have oil and will the war pay for itself?
