Biden Speaks to Ukrainian Leader Volodymyr Zelensky as Prospect of Conflict Looms
President Biden on Sunday explained to Ukraine’s chief the U.S. and its allies would answer quickly to any even more Russian aggression versus his state, the White Home claimed, as Russia deployed some of its most highly effective weapons and greatest-experienced battalions all-around Ukraine and the prospect of imminent war loomed in Europe.

Meanwhile the dread of conflict has led to canceled flights to Ukraine and heightened volatility in electricity and fiscal markets.
