The U.S. ambassador to the United Nations said members of the U.N. Security Council will press Russia on Monday about Moscow’s massing of troops near Ukraine and rising fears it is planning an invasion.

The U.S. ambassador to the United Nations said the Security Council will press Russia hard in a Monday session to discuss its massing of troops near Ukraine and rising fears it is planning an invasion.

Russia’s massing of an estimated 100,000 troops near the border with Ukraine has brought increasingly strong warnings from the West that Moscow intends to invade. Russia is demanding that NATO promise never to allow Ukraine to join the alliance, and to stop the deployment of NATO weapons near Russian borders and roll back its forces from Eastern Europe.The head of Russia’s Security Council, Nikolai Patrushev, on Sunday rejected Western warnings about an invasion.

Congressional Republicans and Democrats have been divided over the timing of possible sanctions, with many GOP members pushing for the U.S. to impose tough penalties immediately instead of waiting for Russia to send new troops into Ukraine.

They should be kicked out of the UN for what they did in Crimea 👍

The planned war? Ukraine themselves say the panic being stoked by the West is uncalled for

Moscow’s massing of troops near Ukraine…

I'll be lmao if Ukraine joins Russia just to spite Biden admin for inflating the situation. The U.N. should be handling this conflict. Not the U.S.

bengin1003 And I was just complaining about MY Monday.

I completely forgot there was a U.N.! What was its purpose again?

The USA should use our space based lasers against Russian materiel.

I don't believe the US is seeing this affair clearly. I doubt if Putin wants to invade Ukraine. His intentions, I believe, are to destabilize Ukraine or grab another slice of it. The US should stay in the background, but alert. At the moment they're doing Putin's job for him!

Nato is Criminaly using my Beloved Ukraine as a Bait to create Problems in the Region. USA & EU has been massing up defence shields & Troops all around Russia, No fear of possible invasion of Russia was ever raised. Now Russia marches out with their Tanks, Why the Screaming?

The UN as some kind of a counter balance to aggression has long out used it’s usefulness if it ever had any. It primary function is to tell western democracies why it doesn’t like them and asking for money to keep them afloat.

I remember someone saying we would just run to the UN! Not trying to fight the bully in the room……

Wouldn’t it be great if the US massed it’s troops on its border them all across the globe.

Given that the very real threat of species destruction is definite (in the form of climate change), why the hell are you newsguys so desperate to start a war? Zelensky tells you to stop panicking, which is damaging his country, but you can't wait to kill Ukrainians, it seems!

Why? The U.N. is worthless. When one country can veto something, what's the purpose? Oh wait, the Senate has the same problem! So again, what's the purpose?

don´t believe

If Ukraine is not worried about this why do we seem so concerned about it?

Liars,

Like the UN has such teeth.

Will the US respect Ukraine’s request for US to back off and stop creating panic?

On Monday why not now...oh wait..it's the weekend. 🙄

Ankward position, Madam.

Godspeed. Also, Russia isn't a grape, nor an olive. But I think there are numerous reasons that KremlinRussia_E would be willing to have a sincere conversation for the sake of balancing numerous concerns for the continent their nation occupies and cooperative global endeavors.

US should first close it's 750+ advance offensive threatening bases/positions around the world before lecturing another nation

Russian troops surround Ukraine. U.S. warns an invasion is imminent and sends arms to Ukraine while warning Russia “don’t step across that line.” Ukraine says, “Meh. What, me worry?”

Isn't it ridiculous that the US is going to sanction Russia because it didn't invade Ukraine? What they will do next to try to force Russia to militarily intervene? Deploying nukes to Kiev? All this farce tells a lot about Washington's systemic collapse and its desperation.

It is the 21st century. Can large powerful nations just invade and rob smaller nations at will. Ukraine is zero threat to Russia. Taiwan is zero threat to China. The U.N. needs to speak. This is just wrong. No justification to attack these nations.

China will veto ANY action against Russia.

Maybe NATO should explain its massing of troops around Russia

While at it why not raise decades long illegal Israeli occupations?
