White House: Russia ‘Privately Mobilizing for War’ While Claiming to Withdraw TroopsCharlie Spiering 17 Feb 2022
The White House continued raising the alarm Wednesday over Russian troop movements on the border of Ukraine, warning Vladimir Putin’s forces were “mobilizing for war.”
A senior administration official told reporters in a briefing call Russian claims they were withdrawing troops from the border are “false” and they are actually “privately mobilizing for war.”
President Joe Biden and his administration continue sharing warnings of an upcoming Russian invasion of Ukraine without publicly sharing intelligence to prove their claims.
“We have now confirmed that in the last several days, Russia has increased its troop presence along the Ukrainian border by as many as 7,000 troops, with some arriving as recently as today,” the official said to reporters on the phone.
The official again prepared the world for Russia to use “false pretext” to justify an invasion of Ukraine.
