Biden Calls Putin’s Actions In Ukraine “Sick”

US President Joe Biden described Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine as “sick” and said that there’s only one rational way to end the war in Ukraine — for Putin to “pull out” of the country.

Eko Hot Blog reports that Biden, during a news conference alongside French President Emmanuel Macron at the White House, said, “But it appears he’s not going to do that. He’s paying a very heavy price for failing to do it, but he’s inflicting incredible, incredible carnage on the civilian population of Ukraine. Bombing nurseries, hospitals, children’s homes. It’s sick what he’s doing.”

Biden added that he had no immediate plans to contact Putin, but is “prepared to speak” with the Russian leader “if in fact there is an interest in him deciding he’s looking for a way to end the war — he hasn’t done that yet.”

He continued, “If that’s the case, in consultation with my French and my NATO friends, I’ll be happy to sit down with Putin to see what he wants, has in mind. He hasn’t done that yet. In the meantime, I think it’s absolutely critical what Emmanuel [Macron] said. We must support the Ukrainian people.”
