President Biden appeared to reveal on Monday that the US is training Ukrainian troops in Poland.
Biden made the comments when trying to explain a recent gaffe. In Poland on Friday, President Biden told members of the 82nd Airborne Division that Ukrainians were “stepping up” against the Russian assault and said, “You’re going to see when you’re there,” suggesting that the US soldiers would be entering the war zone.
Explaining his comments on Monday, Biden said, “We were talking about helping train the troops in — that are — the Ukrainian troops that are in Poland. That’s what the context.”
“I was referring to with — being with and talking with the Ukrainian troops who are in Poland,” he added.

When asked about Biden’s comments, a White House official told Politico that US troops are “interacting” with Ukrainian soldiers in Poland. “There are Ukrainian soldiers in Poland interacting on a regular basis with US troops, and that’s what the President was referring to,” the official said.
Since 2014, the US has trained Ukrainian forces, both openly and covertly. But since Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, it hasn’t been clear if any training programs were still taking place. If the US is training Ukrainian troops now, it means they are being trained to kill Russian soldiers in the current conflict.
Before Russia’s invasion, the US pulled National Guard troops out of Ukraine and reportedly ordered CIA paramilitaries to leave the country. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin reportedly told House lawmakers in February that the Biden administration was considering training Ukrainian forces remotely.
Biden had to explain other recent comments he made, including what appeared to be a call for regime change in Russia. On Saturday, Biden said Russian President Vladimir Putin “cannot remain in power.” The White House appeared to walk back his threat, but Biden doubled down on Monday while claiming the US is not following a policy of regime change in Russia.
“I’m not walking anything back. The fact of the matter is I was expressing the moral outrage I felt toward the way Putin is dealing, and the actions of this man … but I want to make it clear: I wasn’t then, nor am I now, articulating a policy change. I was expressing the moral outrage that I feel, and I make no apologies for it,” Biden said.
The Kremlin responded to Biden’s call for Putin to no longer be in power, calling it “alarming.” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Russia will “continue to track” statements from Biden. Russia had recently summoned the US ambassador in Moscow after Biden called Putin a “war criminal.”
one war criminal calling another war criminal , a war criminal … laughable
oh and didn’t anyone educate this pedophile that you don’t tip your hand ?
shut up ol man , yer embarrassing
There’s no legal issue with the U.S. military training Ukrainian troops or providing them with any type of assistance be it in the form of equipment, weapons, or cash. Foreign policy may be a different story. However, international law allows for the defense of the Ukraine because the country has been illegally invaded by Russia and civilians are being killed as both unintended targets and direct attacks on schools, theaters and other places being used by uninvolved citizens for shelter from the ongoing combat. Putin has an agenda of his own that he hasn’t yet shared in any public venue. His self-isolation and replacement of all command staff as well as servants within his mansion are the same steps taken by Stalin when his paranoia was maximized. It is most unfortunate that Russia has such a consistent pattern of murderous leadership, but perhaps Putin’s pending demise will bring an end to leaders obsessed with killing.
Where was legal intervention to stop the murderous leadership of George Bush Jr, Barak Obama, and Donald Trump when schools, water facilities, food production, and hell, the whole damn country of Iraq, Libya, and Syria were unlawfully invaded and innocent men women and children slaughtered in order to take control of their resources for zion?
All three of these CEOs of the United States Corporation make Putin look like a choir boy.
We harbor mass murderers in this country. We should be keeping our goddamn nose out of other people’s business. When it comes to war criminals, the United States Corporation is unmatched in the world in acting as the attack dog for Israel. You know Israel don’t you, the ones who used phosphorous bombs in the Gaza Strip, but hey those were just Palestinian children they were killing, so that really wasn’t against the law, right?
This propaganda push to get we American nationals to hate the Russian people and go and fight in the Ukraine for the Biden crime cartel isn’t going to work.
The United States can’t accuse anyone of war crimes until they have taken care of their own. I think they call it cleaning up your own back yard.
F-k the Ukraine. If you want to go die over there for the Biden criminal cartel, bye. See ya, wouldn’t want to be ya.
By the way, F-k Putin too, because he’s just another international corporate crime boss vying for more territory and more wealth in the international game of intrigue as the Ukrainian mafia advocates for a new world order which would mean the destruction of the sovereignty of the united states of the Americas and the Bill of Rights, which belongs to we the people who have not consented to any of this shit.
Want to be a one world citizen? If so you are an enemy to the freedom and liberty of the individual as guaranteed by the supreme superior unalienable ratified by the people law of December 15, 1791, which would make you a traitor. That’s the law, my friend.
“How can any not figure out that this Russia and Ukraine situation is staged, and is part of the ‘Great Reset’ agenda? How can any not know that Putin is no different; no better or worse, than Biden, Trump, or any of the rest of the American political class of evil, whether now or in the past? How can any not realize that the ruling class of every country is in agreement concerning the global takeover by the despicable Davos monsters, who are conspiring to bring about world domination? Open your eyes for once in your life, or prepare to be subject to the brutal rule of tyrants. Freedom comes at a price, and that price can have risk, but without paying that price and taking that risk, there is but one consequence. That consequence is slavery, and with slavery comes poverty, starvation, war, domination, rule by force, destruction of life and property, and hell on earth. The decision is yours and yours alone to make, as no one can claim your liberty for you, or protect you from your own cowardice and apathy. The only way rulers can exist is if there are those willing to be ruled.”
