Asked if there is a threat of chemical and biological weapons being used by Russia, Thomas-Greenfield said of Putin: "Certainly nothing is off the table with this guy. He's willing to use whatever tools he can to intimidate Ukrainians and the world." Asked whether the United States would continue to provide military assistance to Ukraine following Putin's announcement, the defense official said: "That support is going to go forward."
On CNN's "State of the Union" program, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg called Putin's behavior "aggressive" and "irresponsible." "This is all a pattern from President Putin and we're going to stand up to it. We have the ability to defend ourselves, but we also need to call out what we're seeing here from President Putin," Psaki added.
