'Who in the Lord's name does Putin think gives him the right', says Joe Biden on Russian invasion

Joe Biden gave a statement regarding Putin's decision to recognise so-called “people’s republics” in Donetsk and Luhansk.

The president said he fully expects a Russian response, and said the US will have its “next move” prepared as Russia contemplates its own.

“Russia will pay an even steeper price [for] continued aggression, including additional sanctions,” he said, adding later that his administration will use “every tool” it has to protect American businesses and consumers from any negative effects from the sanctions, particularly higher prices for oil and petrol.

“Defending freedom will have cost for us as well here at home – we need to be honest about that. But as we do this, I'm going to take robust action to make sure the pain of our sanctions is targeted at a Russian economy, not ours,” he said.

Mr Biden also said the US still believes Russia “is poised to go much further in launching a massive military attack against Ukraine”.

I gotta hand it to the President, that's some very avant-garde sentence structure.

I'm surprised he remained conscious long enough to read the prepared speech for him

Across 2021 the US imported between 12 million as 26 million barrels of crude oil and petroleum from Russia every month. In November 2021, the most recent figures on record, the Energy Information Agency reports that the US took 17.8 million barrels.
