Biden Makes Phone Pledge to Ukraine President; Promises US Will Respond to Invasion by Russia

 U.S.President Joe Biden and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke by phone for just under an hour today (February 13, 2022), with Biden promising that the U,S, would respond "swiftly and decisively" to any potential Russian military action.


However, Biden did not stray from his previous promise not to put U.S. troops in Ukraine. 


The call reaffirms that in the event of military action on Ukraine by Russia, economic sanctions, not military intervention, will be the U.S. weapon of choice.
