Russia-Ukraine live updates: Putin says he'll decide today whether to recognize Russian-controlled separatist regions. Read more:
President Joe Biden is meeting Monday with his national security team, the White House confirmed.
Ukraine has denied the Russian claim and it comes amid a barrage of false reports and staged videos from Russia and the separatists of supposed Ukrainian attacks. In the past three days, Russia has also made dubious claims of shells falling on Russian territory as Russia builds a pretext for a possible attack on Ukraine, under the guise of coming to the aid of the separatists.
Recognition would open a path to Russia potentially annexing the regions and possibly openly sending troops there.
