The president was asked on Tuesday if he thinks “the risk of an invasion is increasing, or decreasing, or steady.”
“I’ll be completely honest with you; it’s a little bit like reading tea leaves,” Biden began. “Ordinarily, if it were a different leader, the fact that he continues to build forces along Ukraine’s border from Belarus all the way around, you’d say, well, that means that is looking like he’s going to do something.”
