At a press conference on Monday afternoon, US Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said he “still believes there may be a diplomatic path” in the tension between Russia and Ukraine.
The spokesperson pointed out that while the US says military action could take place at any time, it believes Russian President Vladimir Putin has yet to make a decision.
Kirby’s interview comes at a time of absolute tension in Ukraine. The spokesman said the United States shares the information with allied countries, and voices continued concern about the military might Putin is deploying on Ukraine’s borders.
Russia claims to be conducting military tests and studies in Belarus, which borders Ukraine. However, military strength is being continuously monitored as the US expresses concern about the amount of weaponry and military that Russia has allocated to this region.
John Kirby, the spokesman for the US Pentagon, was adamant that US President Joe Biden was clear when he said the US will act quickly, and that there will be severe economic consequences if there is an invasion by Russia. .
