Russia Sends Retaliation Warning to U.S. if Ukraine Security Request are Ignored
On Wednesday, Russia warned that they have “retaliatory measures” ready if the United States and its allies in NATO reject security demands for the Ukraine border and push through their “aggressive” policies. This entirely ignores U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris’ threats of direct action that she made just 24 hours earlier.
Russia continues to deny that it has plans to invade Ukraine. However, many critics also point to the 100,000 troops gathered near the border and the war games ongoing in the region as evidence for future intent.
According to the Associated Press, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov spoke to lawmakers on Wednesday, saying that he, along with other top officials, will Russian President Vladimir Putin on what to do next after they received written replies from the U.S. regarding the demands.
