U.S. President Joe Biden says Putin now faces a ‘real dilemma’ as Ukrainian troops are operating on Russia’s territory.

That’s according to New York Post.

“It’s crazy, and it’s a real dilemma for Putin,” Joe Biden said briefly as he spoke on the matter for the first time on August 13.

He adds that his administration is in ‘direct and constant contact’ with the Ukrainians but shuns further comments while their operation is on. According to the U.S. President, he gets updates on situation every 4-5 hours.

Earlier, White House National Security Advisor John Kirby advised Vladimir Putin to ‘get the gell out of Ukraine and call it a day’ if he is concerned about the Kursk crisis.
