Warn
Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, NATO has repeatedly stated that it is inappropriate to engage directly in the conflict. US President Joe Biden also stated that a direct conflict between the United States and Russian nuclear powers could lead to a new world war.
Instead, several NATO countries, led by the United States, have supplied increasingly heavy weapons to Ukraine, with increasing sanctions imposed on Russia.
Russia has repeatedly warned that a ceasefire in Ukraine could have consequences.

The United States announced last week that Ukraine would receive a giant new package of military aid worth $800 million. This package included heavy artillery and military drones.
US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin also promised more support when they met with President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv on Sunday night.
