Antony Blinken

NATO members have a green light to send fighter jets to Ukraine to support Ukrainian Air Force that is still flying.

We`re looking actively now at the question of jets that Poland may provide to Ukraine. And looking at how we might be able to back fill should Poland decide to supply those planes.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken said today that the U.S. is actively discussing a ban on Russian oil and gas with allies.

The Ukrainians have plans in place that I'm not going to talk about or get into any details on to make sure that there is what we would call continuity of government one way or another.

A no-fly zone could lead to a full-fledged war in Europe.

So we also have responsibility, as a secretary general said, to ensure that the war doesn`t spill over even beyond Ukraine. And again, because I think he put it so well, as he noted, the only way to actually implement something like a…

The only way to actually implement something like a no-fly zone is to send NATO planes into Ukrainian airspace and to shoot down Russian planes, and that could lead to a full-fledged war in Europe. President Biden has been clear that we…

The only way to, actually, implement something like a no fly zone is to send NATO planes into Ukrainian airspace, and to shoot down Russian planes. That could lead to a full- fledged war. And Europe, President Biden has been clear, that we…

We have never sought and will not seek conflict with Russia. At the same time, we will keep open the door to dialogue and diplomacy, while making clear to the Kremlin that, unless it changes course, it will continue down the road of…

The terrible expectation is that the suffering we've already seen is likely to get worse before it gets better for as long as Russia pursues these methods.

One of Russia`s methods of war is to be absolutely brutal in trying to cow the citizenry of a given country. And that includes at the very least indiscriminate, targeting and potentially deliberate targeting as well. We`re looking very…

We know many of you want no part of this war. You, like Ukrainians, like Americans, like people everywhere, want the same basic things, good jobs, clean air and water, the chance to raise your kids in safe neighborhoods, to send them to…

if Russia pulls back and pursues diplomacy, we stand ready to do the same.

This is President Putin`s war. This isn`t the Russian people`s war.

Twenty--two Russian defense related entities will be designated, including companies that make combat aircraft, infantry fighting vehicles, missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles, electronic warfare systems, the various systems now being used…

This is shameful. The numbers of civilians killed and wounded, the humanitarian consequences will only grow in the days ahead. President Biden likes to say big nations can`t bluff. The United States doesn`t bluff. And President Putin has…

We, of course, remain open to pursuing any reasonable path. But it's very hard to see any path when the bombs are dropping and the planes are flying, the tanks are rolling.

All evidence suggests that Russia intends to encircle and threatened Kyiv. And we believe Moscow has developed plans to inflict widespread human rights abuses and potentially worse -- potentially worse on the Ukrainian people.

I'm convinced he's going to try to do that.

All evidence suggests that Russia intends to encircle and threaten Kyiv.

Well, first, when it comes to treating NATO countries, we have something very powerful called Article 5, an attack on one is an attack on all.

I do. Unfortunately, Russia has positioned his forces at the final point of readiness across Ukraine`s borders to the north, to the east, to the south. Everything seems to be in place for Russia to engage in a major aggression against…

I'm convinced he's going to try to do that.

Secretary of State Blinken says he is convinced that Russia will try to overthrow the Ukrainian government.
