The U.S. authorities will be faced with two scenarios for the outcome of the Ukrainian conflict.

“Biden may have to face either the collapse of Ukraine, as it will be defeated, or the replacement of power in Kyiv with one friendly to Moscow,” RIA Novosti quoted the statement as saying. Brian called on Western countries to try to find a way out of the conflict, since transferring weapons to Kyiv may not work if there is no one to use them.
