“I actually disagree with that,” said commentator Matthew Stadlen. First, I agree with you that he couldn’t possibly have meant that because the President of the United States saying he’d use illegal weapons is completely incomprehensible to me, right?
“However, strangely and ironically, it may serve to deter Putin because he does not want chemical weapons used against him.”
“I used to be one of those people.” I don’t know about you, but I stayed up pretty much all night several nights in a row hoping that Biden would be Trump. There’s no doubt in my mind that Biden has not defiled the Office of the President in the way that Trump has.
President Joe Biden stated on Thursday that if Russia used chemical weapons in its invasion of Ukraine, the US would respond.
“If he uses it, we’ll respond. The nature of the response would be determined by the type of use “Biden stated this during a press conference in Brussels.
According to officials, the White House National Security Council sent an internal memo to agencies on February 28 to form a strategy group to examine major geopolitical shifts occurring as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. A second group, known internally as the “Tiger Team,” is planning the next three months.
According to the official, the teams are developing contingency plans for a variety of scenarios, including Russia’s potential use of chemical or biological weapons, the targeting of US security convoys, disruptions to global food supply chains, and the continued response to the growing refugee crisis.
The official would not speculate on how the US would respond if Russia used weapons of mass destruction, but he did state that there would be a response.
According to Pentagon spokesperson John Kirby on CNN, it is the responsibility of the United States to plan for contingencies.
“We have seen no evidence that the Russians are willing to use weapons of mass destruction within Ukraine. There would be a significant reaction if that happened “Mr. Kirby stated that the United States and the international community both have a role to play.
