US Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman said on Tuesday that Russian troops “seem close to collapse” in Ukraine and that the Kremlin’s actions, including support for what she described as “fake referendums”. in some Ukrainian regions, they were a desperate measure by President Vladimir Putin.
In an interview with MSNBC, Sherman said there were concerns that Putin “will use types of weapons of war that he shouldn’t,” noting that he had already restricted access to food.
“I hope he understands what the president has just conveyed: no. Not. No,” she said, referring to President Joe Biden’s warning about punishments if Russia uses chemical or nuclear weapons.
Several Kremlin-backed officials in eastern and southern Ukraine have announced that referendums on Russia’s membership will be held this week. Ukraine scrapped the measure as a result of “fear of defeat”.
