The United States chose the alarmist tone by evoking an imminent attack by Russia in Ukraine. If a Russian attack took place, could the American army intervene? Journalist Loïc de la Mornais provides an update on the situation live from Washington (United States).
Joe Biden was very clear on this subject, “there will be no American soldiers on Ukrainian soil to fight the Russian army if it ever invades Ukraine”, reports journalist Loïc de la Mornais live from Washington (United States), Saturday, February 12. “That does not mean that there are no risks of blunders, of escalation, because, for example, if there is this Russian invasion, there will certainly be American nationals to evacuate, no doubt with American soldiers to evacuate them”continues the journalist.
What would happen if American soldiers were under fire from the Russian army? “It is likely that the Russians will retaliate. Joe Biden has sent 5,000 American soldiers to countries close to Ukraine, including Poland and Romania. In total, there are 70,000 American troops in Europe, mostly in Germany…the risk of escalation is significant and experts in Washington say this is the highest tension Europe has seen since the end of the Second World War”concludes the journalist.
