US Secretary of State Blinken said in Melbourne, Australia, on the 11th local time that Russia is increasing its troops to the Russian-Ukrainian border and will likely invade Ukraine "at any time".
According to US media reports, Blinken, who was visiting Australia, said at a press conference held on the same day that the US side now sees a "disturbing signal" and that Russia is increasing its troops to the Russian-Ukrainian border. "The current situation is that Russia could invade Ukraine at any time, including possibly during the Olympic Games."
Blinken also said the U.S. was evacuating some U.S. embassy personnel in Ukraine. He also called on U.S. citizens who are still in Ukraine to leave immediately.
The U.S. State Department issued a travel recommendation on the 10th, saying that all U.S. citizens in Ukraine should leave immediately due to "the threat of military action from Russia." If Russia "invades" Ukraine, the United States will not be able to evacuate its citizens in Ukraine.
