Russia-Ukraine War: President Joe Biden issued a strong response to a journalist's question about Russian President Vladimir Putin’s warning on Ukraine during a meeting with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer at the White House. Biden became visibly frustrated when a reporter from the British press asked him to comment on Putin’s statement that lifting restrictions on Ukraine’s use of long-range missiles could escalate the conflict into a direct US-Russia war, according to the New York Post. “Be quiet until I speak, okay? That’s what I say. Good idea?” Biden replied, showing irritation. The reporter continued, prompting Biden to respond, “You’ve got to be quiet. I’m going to make a statement here, okay?” After the brief introductory statements by Biden and Starmer, the reporter again asked about Putin. In response, Biden remarked, “I don’t think much about Vladimir Putin.”

Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that the West would be directly fighting with Russia if it allowed Ukraine to strike Russian territory with Western-made long-range missiles, a move he said would alter the nature and scope of the conflict. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has been pleading with Kyiv's allies for months to let Ukraine fire Western missiles including long-range U.S. ATACMS and British Storm Shadows deep into Russian territory to limit Moscow's ability to launch attacks. In some of his most hawkish comments on the subject yet, Putin said such a move would drag the countries supplying Kyiv with long-range missiles directly into the war since satellite targeting data and the actual programming of the missiles' flight paths would have to be done by NATO military personnel because Kyiv did not have the capabilities itself.
