Biden accuses Russia of <x0genocide” in Ukraine

Putin, on the other hand, has pledged that the war will continue until the goals are achieved.

Beden has considered Russia's actions in Ukraine as “the acid”, during a speech he held in Aya on 12 April, saying that the American family budget or second chance to buy gasoline should not depend on the fact “if a dictator declares war and commits half-world genocide from”.

He has later reiterated his stance, telling reporters that he has called Russia's war in Ukraine a genocide “because it has become more clear that Putin is aiming to eliminate the idea of someone being Ukrainian and data being added to”.

He has said lawyers can decide whether the Russian side's actions are considered genocide, “well that seems to me”.

Beden's comments have come as American media have reported that the Pentagon will hold a meeting with the largest arms producers in the United States to discuss the possibilities of this industry supporting Ukraine in the fight against Russia.

Officials are expected to discuss proposals to increase current production and develop new systems, which are key to helping Ukraine, is said in US media reports.

The meeting is expected to be the eight largest arms production companies, including General Dinamics, Raytheon and Lockheed Martin.

The United States is also expected to announce that it will send additional military assistance to Ukraine at the value of hundreds of millions of dollars have reported American media, citing unidentified sources.

The final amount is not finalised, but it is expected to be about 700 million dollars.

If approved, additional shipments would lead US aid to Ukraine to more than $3 billion from the launch of the Biden leadership.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has called on the US and Europe to send more weapons to Ukraine to combat Russian aggression.

Russian forces are continuing to move east of Ukraine, where an offensive is expected to take place in the Donbas region until the situation becomes worse in the city of Marioupolis, where thousands are reportedly killed.

Ukrainian commanders and Western officials have said Russia is continuing to remove troops from Kiev and Belarus to Harchive and regions, Donjeck and Luhansk, where there is constant fighting since 2014.

Officials expect Russia to launch new offensives, and aims to take control of the regions, Donjeck and Luhansk, which are still controlled by the Ukrainian government forces.

Ukrainian and Western officials have said they are investigating reports that chemical weapons may have been used against fighters in Azov and Ukrainian Marines in Mariupol.

The United Nations Chemical Weapons Agency has said it is “concerned” by unconfirmed reports of access to chemical weapons in Mariupol.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said that the United States “cannot confirm anything”, but has added that Washington has “loan information-8” that Russian forces may have used a variety of agents, including tear gas mixed with chemical agents.

Speaking 12 April from the east of Russia, Putin has called the war and military targets, “obsolutely clear and noble” and predicted that Russian forces would be successful.

The Russian leader has reiterated that Russian forces are helping the people in Ukraine and another claim by the Kremlin that Russian-speaking people in Ukraine are at risk.

Putin has said that long-term peace talks are in “the blind road”, but Mykhaylo Podolak, Zelensky's adviser, has said peace talks are very difficult, but are continuing at the level of working subgroups.

He has told Reuters news agency that Russia is trying to increase pressure on talks through public statements.
