White House: Biden’s remarks about Ukraine are his personal opinion.
A White House spokesperson said the president’s remarks about Ukraine were only his personal views, adding that they did not affect Washington’s position.
White House spokeswoman Jennifer Psaki on Thursday morning sought to dissuade the US government from making insulting remarks and baseless allegations by President Joe Biden about Russia and the Ukraine war.
Saki told a news conference that the White House believed that Biden’s remarks about “genocide” in Ukraine were only his personal views.
According to the RIA Novosti website, she also stressed that such statements could not harm the prospects of peace talks and would not affect the US position on resolving the crisis.
Asked about Biden’s remarks on Tuesday, the White House spokesman said: “It is unlikely that President Putin will make that decision because of what he has to say. Not to participate in peace talks. “If it is in his interest, he will decide to take part in negotiations.”
“We will always support the peace talks,” Psaki said, noting that the US government will always support the Ukrainian authorities in the negotiations. The president, the secretary of state, the national security adviser will always support it. “And we support the Ukrainians in their struggle.”
According to RIA Novosti, he noted that it may take years for the international community to reach a legal opinion on what is happening in Ukraine in line with the concept of “genocide.”
