The US authorities “under no scenario” intend to send American troops to Ukraine to fight against Russia, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said.

At a briefing for journalists, Psaki stressed that US President Joe Biden “will under no circumstances change this decision.” “We will not go to war with Russia,” the White House spokeswoman added.

At the same time, Psaki said that at this stage the White House is not considering the possibility of holding a meeting between Russian and US Presidents Vladimir Putin and Joe Biden. According to her, the US president and the US administration “made it clear” that contacts with President Putin or Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov were possible “if Russia did not invade Ukraine.” According to her, “now the situation is different and holding these diplomatic contacts does not seem like the right or the right thing to do.” However, Psaki stressed that if Russia “chooses the path of de-escalation,” the United States “will count on diplomatic negotiations.”
