White House insists US troops not going to Ukraine after Biden comments in Poland
The White House on Friday insisted the U.S. military will not be deployed to Ukraine amid Russia’s multifront war on the country after comments President Biden made to troops in Poland seemed to suggest otherwise.
Biden, visiting U.S. service members in Poland, talked about how average Ukrainian citizens are “stepping up.”
“You’re going to see when you’re there – some of you have been there – you’re going to see women, young people, standing in the middle, in front of a damn tank, saying, ‘I’m not leaving.'”
Biden, since prior to Russia’s invasion, and throughout its war on Ukraine, has maintained that U.S. troops would not enter the conflict between Ukraine and Russia.
When asked Friday about the possibility of U.S. troop involvement, the White House insisted its stance remains the same.
“The president has been clear we are not sending U.S. troops to Ukraine and there is no change in that position,” a White House spokesperson told Fox News Friday. – READ MORE
