Additionally, he said the US will not push for Putin\u2019s ouster.<\/p>\n<p>The President said as long as the US or our allies are not attacked, America will not directly engage in the war. Biden also asserted US troops will not be sent to Ukraine or attack Russian forces. However, despite his claim, Biden affirmed the US will keep continue military, humanitarian and financial support for the Ukraine government.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The US Constitution confers the authority to declare war to the American people thru our congressional reps. While we struggle to afford fuel and food, Congress has abandoned this responsibility, allowing the Biden Admin to get us into a hot war with Russia using Ukraine as proxy <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/CRrpa7JVTT\">pic.twitter.com\/CRrpa7JVTT<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Tulsi Gabbard \ud83c\udf3a (@TulsiGabbard) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TulsiGabbard\/status\/1530143404515962881?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 27, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Meanwhile, Russia held nuclear drills after President Biden announced plans to send advanced rocket systems to Ukraine. On Wednesday, Russian media reported nuclear drills were held in an area northeast of Moscow.<\/p>\n<p>Also in Tuesday\u2019s op-ed, Biden said he would be sending more military equipment as part of a new $700 million package for the Ukraine government, including anti-tank missiles and precision rockets. The Kremlin warned Biden is \u201cadding fuel to the fire,\u201d despite the US President stating that Ukraine will not be able to used those rocket systems to strike into Russia.<\/p>\n<p>US Secretary of State Antony Blinken reiterated those sentiments Wednesday. He also said there is a strong trust between Ukraine and the US, along with NATO allies and partners.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cThe Ukrainians have given us assurances that they will not use these systems against targets on Russian territory,\u201d Blinken stated. \u201cThere is a strong trust bond between Ukraine and the United States as well as with our allies and partners. I\u2019d also say that throughout this aggression, indeed even before, President Biden was very clear with President Putin about what the United States would do if Russia proceeded with its aggression, including continuing to provide security assistance that Ukraine needs to defend itself against the Russian aggression.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In the meantime, energy market analysts believe oil prices could hit $150 per barrel in coming weeks as a result of tensions with Russia. According to reports Tuesday, Russia may reduce oil exports by 18 percent this year. This comes as Russian companies prefer to sell oil in the domestic market and export excess supply to Asia amid Western sanctions. Experts have suggested geopolitical tensions may contribute to an economic downturn in the US.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/white-house-downplays-inflation-economic-crises\/\">Biden Reportedly Frustrated With His White House Staff\u2019s Handling Of Inflation<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>US President Joe<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":79,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1500033","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1500033","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/79"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1500033"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1500033\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1500033"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1500033"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1500033"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
