Psaki: It’s Up to Putin to Make a Decision About Whether He Is Going to Invade

EXCERPT:

PSAKI: "Well, Kristen, I think it’s going to be up to President Putin to make a decision about whether he is going to invade Ukraine and send a message to the global community that he does not respect the territorial integrity of a country when the United States, our European partners, are sending a clear message that there will be significant economic consequences, severe economic consequences beyond, as Jake Sullivan said the other day, what we have seen in 2014. So, at this point, obviously you would know if they have made the decision to invade. They have not. But again, it’s — the ball is in his court."
