US President Biden: Russia attack on Ukraine possible in next several days

US President Joe Biden said on Thursday that every indication they have is that Russia is prepared to invade Ukraine. “My sense is it will happen within the next several days”.

In a small talk with journalists outside the White House, Biden said he has no plan to talk with Vladimir Putin.

Stocks are falling on Thursday as uncertainty around the Ukraine border grows. The Dow Jones is likely to open with a 0.75% decline and the Nasdaq falling by almost 1%.
