U.S. officials say intelligence suggests Russia is considering Wednesday as the possible date to attack.
President Joe Biden and Russia’s Vladimir Putin are planning to speak on Saturday as the warnings of a possible invasion become more urgent.
Putin had reportedly requested the call take place Monday but Biden pushed for it to take place earlier amid intelligence assessments that say an attack on Ukraine could come earlier than expected. Intelligence analysts had broadly believed an invasion would only happen after the end of the Winter Olympics to avoid antagonizing China.
