The US Department of Defense was unable to confirm the information that Russia is preparing an attack on Ukraine on February 16. This was stated by Pentagon spokesman John Kirby on Fox News.

According to him, at the moment, the US expects that the Russian invasion could begin at any moment.

Earlier, US President Joe Biden, during a conversation with the leaders of allied countries, said that Russia could allegedly attack Ukraine on February 16, Politico sources say. The invasion will be preceded by missile strikes and cyber attacks, writes .

Later, US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said that Russia's "invasion" of Ukraine could begin any day.

The West has repeatedly accused Russia of the impending "invasion" of the territory of Ukraine. As an argument, Western politicians use the fact that the Russian Federation has allegedly increased its presence in the border zones with Ukraine - up to 125,000 soldiers.

Moscow denies all accusations and emphasizes that any movement of troops across the country's territory is a sovereign matter. NATO and the alliance's allies think otherwise and are preparing a package of sanctions in the event of an invasion.
