Biden Still Willing to Talk to Putin

“Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Sunday that President Biden was still willing to talk to President Vladimir Putin of Russia despite the U.S. government’s assessment that Mr. Putin has already decided to invade Ukraine,” the New York Times reports.

Said Blinken: “We believe President Putin has made the decision, but until the tanks are actually rolling, and the planes are flying, we will use every opportunity and every minute we have to see if diplomacy can still dissuade President Putin from carrying this forward.”
