The United States is not looking for wars with Russia, if NATO forces are not attacked, then Washington will not directly intervene in the Russian war against Ukraine, said US President Joe Biden in an article for The New York Times.
“We are not looking for a war between NATO and Russia. While the United States or their allies are not attacked, we will not be directly involved in this conflict by sending American troops to battle in Ukraine or by attacking Russian armed forces”, – he wrote.
In addition, Biden assured that Washington would not attempt to change power in Russia: “Although I do not agree with the [President of Russia Vladimir] Putin and I consider his actions arbitrariness, the United States will not contribute to his withdrawal in Moscow “.
According to him, the United States does not see the signs that Russia has an intention to use nuclear weapons, Washington would consider any use in Ukraine unacceptable. “I know that many people around the world are concerned with [threat] of the use of nuclear weapons. At the moment, we have no indications that Russia intends to use nuclear weapons in Ukraine, although periodically sounding statements aimed at the rattling of nuclear sabers, by themselves They are dangerous and extremely irresponsible. I would like to clearly make it clear: any use of nuclear weapons in this conflict on any scale would be absolutely unacceptable for us and the rest of the world would have entailed serious consequences, ”Biden said.
