Biden did not rule out the imposition of sanctions against Putin personally in the event of an escalation around Ukraine

According to RIA Novosti, Biden was asked whether he considers it possible to impose sanctions personally against the President of Russia in the event of an "invasion of Russian forces."

“Yes,” the American leader replied.

Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov, in an interview with CNN, noted that the alleged US sanctions against the leadership of the Russian Federation could lead to a breakdown in relations between the countries.

The Kremlin spokesman said that the idea of ​​a possible United States of Vladimir Putin is comparable to the initiative to break off relations.
