Biden's spokesperson stated today "US will not send troops to help Ukraine under any scenario."

Seems a concession, if not directive, to Russia to invade Ukraine.

Not that I wanted to see US confront Russia, but threatening sanctions and nothing more really was giving Putin the go ahead.

Agreed, there were numerous "green lights" given by Biden. This "will not send troops" comment was the most blunt/clear of all.
