READ MORE: Russian President Vladimir Putin presided over massive military drills as shelling escalated in eastern Ukraine on Saturday after U.S. President Joe Biden said Putin has made up his mind to invade Ukraine.
“I'm convinced he's made the decision. We have reason to believe that,” Biden said Friday during remarks from the White House.
On Saturday, the Russian military launched massive drills of its strategic nuclear forces that were personally overseen by Putin, although Biden said he did not believe Putin is seriously contemplating the use of nuclear weapons.
Russia’s defense ministry said the exercises, which the Kremlin says were previously planned to check readiness, involved a number of practice submarine launches of intercontinental ballistic missiles, with Putin and the president of Belarus looking on.
On Saturday, U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said the more than 150,000 Russian troops that have amassed at Ukraine’s border “are now poised to strike,” as he spoke with reporters in Lithuania, where Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda called for an increased U.S. troop presence.
At the annual Munich Security Conference Saturday, U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris warned that Russia’s plan was unfolding.
