The attitudes of all forces in the current Russian-Ukrainian crisis have never been the same.
From the fact that French President Emmanuel Macron actively mediated between countries on Monday and said that he had received a "promise" from Russian President Vladimir Putin, it can be seen that Europe is trying to cool down, Russia is calm, and the United States has reacted coldly.
According to the European plan, the "Normandy talks" held in Berlin, Germany, on Thursday are expected to strengthen dialogue between the parties and ease tensions through diplomatic efforts.
However, US President Joe Biden's words are tantamount to "adding fuel to the fire" of the whole development.
According to Bloomberg, Biden urged U.S. citizens to leave Ukraine, saying "things could soon get crazy."
According to the Global Network, Biden said in an interview with NBC:
It's not like we're dealing with terrorist groups, we're dealing with one of the most powerful militaries in the world. This is a very different situation.
The U.S. side also mentioned again that if Russia takes any radical action, the United States will "quickly" impose a "heavy price" on Russia.
When asked, "Under what circumstances would he send troops to rescue U.S. citizens fleeing Ukraine?" Biden replied:
"No, when the United States and Russia start fighting, it will be a world war."
At the same time, Russia and Belarus are also engaged in the largest joint military exercise in years, located in the Ukrainian border area, which is scheduled to last until February 20.
The United States and NATO have issued warnings that Russia has gathered nearly 130,000 troops in the Ukrainian border area and may be preparing for this month's attack.
The Russian side has repeatedly denied the "attack" and stressed that NATO activities threaten Russia's border security, and russia has the right to mobilize troops within its territory to defend its territory.
