President Biden vowed to ‘respond decisively’ to any perceived incursion by Russian into Ukrainian territory, while on a call with his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky on Sunday.

As The Hill reports:

President Biden told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Sunday that the U.S. and its allies will “respond decisively” if Russia again invades the so-called Donbas region in southeastern Ukraine.

In a statement, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said the leaders “expressed support for diplomatic efforts,” adding that Biden “made clear that the United States and its allies and partners will respond decisively if Russia further invades Ukraine. ”

She noted ongoing diplomatic efforts including the bilateral Strategic Stability Dialogue between the U.S. and Russia, as well as discussions through the NATO-Russia Council and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.

Biden has recently had conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin in an effort to lower the tensions between Russia and Ukraine — a videoconference call on Dec. 7 and a phone call on Dec. 31.

Ukraine, which is not a NATO member and not in any treaty which would require the US to come to its aide if attacked, has been at odds with Russia since its own government was toppled in 2014.

  1. I heard about and I’ve made such great money. It’s really user friendly and I’m just so happy that I found out about it.KJH The potential with this is endless. 
    Here’s what I do… 𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐠𝐥𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐲𝐬𝟎𝟏.𝐓𝐤

  2. Is the tail now threatening to wag the dog now that #FJB’s poll numbers are plunking like a load in water? Plunk. Would he do the same for Taiwan? Nyet, not with all those yuan clinking in his and his family’s pockets.

    1. Yep, Europe (NATO) can easily handle Russia. The PRC on the other hand is a much more massive and technologically advancing threat.
      Ukraine is a Wag the Dog issue, Taiwan, the purest Democratic Republic in Asia, is a much bigger and important hill to defend against CCP tyranny.

  3. He hasn’t made a competent decision in his entire career in politics! His last military decision was a lasting disaster.

  4. Biden is BRAIN DEAD and Russia and China would love to go to war wit the USA with BRAIN DEAD BIDEN IN CHARGE….Better learn how to speak Chinese or Russian….

  5. LISTEN UP….There Needs to be PEACE TALKS Between RUSSIA and UKRAINE. No COUNTRY Should try to DOMINATE Another COUNTRY or its PEOPLE. ANYONE Who is ATTACKED has a RIGHT to DEFEND Theirself. THOSE who Live by the SWORD shall DIE by the SWORD. From SamuraiQueen. 😩😩😩

  6. What use is a BSSD , NATO, RC, OSCE when they are all CORRUPT ? Do they just sit around tuning their mouth about you’ve got more then I got? -or- your thing is bigger and kills more than ours? When is people going to wake up ? When it’s too late? Are you going to take the word of a thief? or a liar?

  7. What a joke. Maybe if Biden didn’t project such a state of weakness with all of his “America Last” executive orders, Putin and others would take him seriously. Is there a country anywhere where we are presently not considered a laughing stock? What a shame. From Hero to Zero in less than a year. Thanks Joe.

  8. What? Biden going to recommend hiding under those blankets obama sent the Ukraine in 2014 when they asked for weapons.

  9. I shuttered to think we had a community organizer as President for 8 years and as Commander in Chief. I was comfortable with Trump there. Now we have a senile idiot as Commander in Chief, let alone a complete incompetent VP that could be President if Biden doesn’t make it a full four years. I suggest a Constitution Amendment as a qualification to be President and Commander in Chief be required to have served in the military with an honorable discharge.

  10. The place they are at now, seems like Russia is threatening to act if Ukraine joins NATO. So, wouldn’t it be sensible to tell Russia that Ukraine will not join NATO, if Russia will withdraw its reoops, but, if Russian military crosses the border, Ukraines membership in NATO is automatic.
