During a meeting at the White House on Friday, President Joe Biden addressed the escalating tensions with Russia, particularly regarding the use of Storm Shadow missiles by Ukraine. Biden, alongside UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and their respective teams, dismissed the saber-rattling threats issued by Russian President Vladimir Putin. The US president emphasized that he does not believe that Ukraine's deployment of Western-made Storm Shadow missiles to strike targets within Russia would constitute a declaration of war by NATO against Moscow. This stance reflects a commitment to supporting Ukraine while navigating the complex geopolitical landscape.
