A defiant President Joe Biden, in a Thursday press conference at the end of the NATO summit, said that Americans should expect to pay high gasoline prices for “as long as it takes” to get Russia out of Ukraine.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has said his country is not prepared to hold peace talks with Russia, a source in the French government has told the state news agency AFP.

The military bloc’s chief says the number of high-readiness forces will reach 300,000.

We "do not see the whole drama unfolding behind this war, which was perhaps somehow either provoked or not prevented," said Francis.

Throughout the past few months, Vladimir Putin has offered up all manner of outlandish excuses for his invasion of Ukraine.
