There is a “distinct possibility” that Russia will invade Ukraine in a “very swift time frame,” White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan warned Friday, as he urged all Americans in Ukraine to “leave immediately.”
“There will be no opportunity to leave and no prospect of a U.S. military evacuation in the event of a rush invasion,” Sullivan said to reporters in the White House briefing room. An attack, he said, would “likely begin” with aerial bombing and missile strikes, and “no one would be able to count on rail or air or road departures.”
The significant escalation in the U.S. warning came amid reports of new intelligence, and evidence on the ground, over the last several days indicating that Russia is now fully prepared to launch an invasion. Sullivan said that the United States has no final confirmation that Russian President Vladimir Putin has made the final decision to attack. But, he said, “we believe he very well may give the final go order. That is a very distinct possibility.”
“It may well happen,” he repeated. “It may well happen soon.”
