MOSCOW, February 12/ Radio Sputnik. Russia may attack Ukraine on February 16, US President Joe Biden said during talks with allies via videoconference. This is reported by the newspaper Politico.
At the same time, the authors of the article admit that the intelligence announced by the head of the White House on February 16 may turn out to be "raw" and not convey a general assessment of the situation on the Russian-Ukrainian border.
On the eleventh of February, Bloomberg published a material in which it calls February 15 the likely date of the "attack".
Earlier, the agency mistakenly reported that the "invasion" of the Russian Federation into Ukraine had already begun. According to Bloomberg, some "officials" told the journalists the information. There were no other confirmations of this data from the agency.
Commenting on the erroneous Bloomberg release about the "invasion", the press secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov pointed out the irreparable consequences that such publications can lead to.
Recently, Western countries have been persistently accusing Russia of allegedly preparing an invasion of Ukraine.
Moscow rejected such statements and explained that the "stuffing" in the press loyal to Washington about "Russian aggression" serves as a reason for the tightening of NATO weapons to the borders of the Russian Federation.
On the eve of Sputnik radio told why the White House called on all Americans to "immediately leave" Ukraine.
