Russia's Annexation of Ukraine Territory Shows Putin is Struggling, President Biden says

President Biden reacts to Russia's annexation of Ukrainian territory, saying it is a sign that President Putin is "struggling." He says the U.S. will not accept the sham referenda results and warns the Russian leader that the West will not be intimidated. "America is fully prepared with our NATO allies to defend every single inch of NATO territory, every single inch. Mr. Putin, don't misunderstand what I'm saying. Every inch," the president says. He also dismisses as "disinformation" Russian claims that the U.S. sabotaged the Nord Stream pipeline and says the U.S. will soon send divers down to investigate the scene of recent explosions that caused the pipeline leaks. close
