Europe needs to diversify its energy supplies, the head of NATO said, as Britain warned it was “highly likely” that Russia, the continent’s biggest natural gas supplier, was looking to invade Ukraine.
Moscow denies any plan to invade but said on Sunday it would ask NATO to clarify whether it intends to implement key security commitments, after earlier saying the alliance’s response to its demands did not go far enough.
Some of the sanctions in the bill could take place before any invasion because of what Russia has already done, said one of the senators, Bob Menendez. He cited cyberattacks on Ukraine, false flag operations, and efforts to undermine the Ukrainian government internally. “We think it’s highly likely that he is looking to invade Ukraine. That is why we’re doing all we can through deterrence and diplomacy, to urge him to desist,” Foreign Secretary Liz Truss told BBC television.
