Biden says he does not foresee U.S. troops moving into Ukraine
"There is not going to be any American forces moving into Ukraine," Biden said.
He added that the decision to put troops on high alert is "not provocative" but intended to reassure the U.S.' allies. "We have no intention of putting American forces, or NATO forces, in Ukraine. But as I said, there will be serious economic consequences if he moves," he added, referring to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Asked if he could see himself personally sanctioning Putin in the case of an invasion, Biden replied, "Yes...I would see that."
