President Biden announced on Tuesday that the United States will impose new sanctions on Moscow after Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered troops into two Ukrainian territories on which the Kremlin has laid claim for years.
“This is the beginning of a Russian invasion of Ukraine,” Biden said in an address from the East Room of the White House.
Biden’s remarks came a day after Putin ordered troops into Donetsk and Luhansk under the guise of “peacekeeping,” even as the Russian president made clear that he did not accept the basic premise of Ukrainian sovereignty.
