US President Joe Biden said in a press conference January 19, 2022, that he expects Russia to make a move on Ukraine, warning that it would be met with a severe and coordinated economic response. Meanwhile, Russia has moved troops to Belarus for joint military exercises planned for February, and has strengthened its military presence near Ukraine.
