‘You have to be ridiculous’: Biden’s response to Ukraine questions from Fox News reporter
President Joe Biden is preparing to order the release of up to 1 million barrels of oil per day from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve in an effort to control prices that have soared after the United States and its allies imposed tough sanctions on Russia over its invasion of Ukraine.
The announcement may come as soon as Thursday, according to reports.
Biden spoke with Ukrainian Volodymyr Zelensky to discuss the situation in Ukraine. The call comes at a time when Ukrainian and Russian negotiators are discussing a de-escalation agreement in which Russia may withdraw its forces from the area near Kyiv.
Both the White House and the Pentagon have said they believe Russian President Vladimir Putin is being misinformed about the progress of the war by his top advisers.
Biden also gave a speech on the state of the coronavirus pandemic, and announced the launch of a central resource site, before receiving the second booster shot of the Pfizer vaccine.
Meanwhile, after controversial nomination hearings that saw Republican senators debate critical race theory, Ketanji Brown-Jackson chose an important supporter: Maine Senator Susan Collins, who became the first Republican to announce she would vote to confirm it.
