According to him, “invasion” does not mean that the United States has false intelligence.

Price noted that despite Russia’s statements regarding the withdrawal of troops from the border, the US’s concerns about the situation around Ukraine have not diminished one iota.

Noting that Washington does not see any signs of de-escalation, he said, “I want to be very clear that our fears have not diminished one iota. In fact, our fears continue to rise as we have not seen any de-escalation yet. . We are already witnessing an escalation.”

Price claimed that the United States monitors the arrival of new Russian forces on the Ukrainian border and takes positions “allowing them to be deployed at any time for a provocation-free invasion”.

On January 14, White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki said that the “Russian invasion of Ukraine” could begin “between mid-January and mid-February”.

The United States and its allies claimed that Russia would attack Ukraine on the night of February 16. And the British media set the date of the “Russian invasion” at four o’clock in the morning of that day, Moscow time.

The Kremlin has previously expressed disappointment by a number of Western media reports about the start of the Russian “attack” on Ukraine on Wednesday morning.
