White House press secretary Jen Psaki suggested on Thursday that Vladimir Putin using chemical weapons was not a ‘red line’ for the United States to prompt a military response.
She doubled down on President Joe Biden‘s stance that America won’t have boots on the ground in the Ukraine. And she refused to say what – if anything – would change that.
‘I’m not going to get into red lines from here,’ Psaki said from her podium in the White House briefing room.
‘I’m not going to get into hypotheticals,’ she noted. ‘But the president’s intention of sending U.S. military to fight in Ukraine against Russia has not changed.’
