Russia will pay a high price if it decides to invade Ukraine. Washington is ready to apply sanctions in the event of an escalation of the conflict, US President Joe Biden said at a meeting with reporters at the White House. This is reported by Reuters.

Biden noted that any movement of Russian armed forces to Ukraine would be considered an invasion and aggression. The US President said that Russia will face serious consequences also in the case of the use of non-military measures against Kiev.
