Putin 'chose war' and will face consequences, says Biden - BBC News

Twelve hours after Russia launched a full-scale assault on Ukraine, the US responded by implementing additional sanctions.

"Putin chose this war, and now he and his country will bear the consequences,'' US President Joe Biden says, describing the invasion as a premeditated attack without provocation, justification and necessity.

Biden: "Putin will suffer consequences! He won't be allowed in Disneyland anymore!"

And who sanctioned the states when they decided to start wars with other countries??

[louis.p]

I think the wording here is a little off; “standing up” to someone involves an active and immediate element of defense, whereas sanctions take time to work. In this case he meant “punish”.

"Choose war and face consequences!". Lol

Ukraine is a perfect example never trust the NATO nations

Damn the audio is low on this. I can hear him but my audio is set to max and its nowhere near loud as it should be

contrast "Our forces are not and will not be engaged in the conflict with russia in the ukraine" with "America stands up to bullies"
The double speak here is off the chart

the US did not face the consequences of a foreign power that is philosophically unsound
