  • The security council of Russia was meeting on Monday.

  • Russia could invade Ukraine at any moment, warned the US.

  • Russia does not want war, but has not been involved in the solution of the crisis.

The US continues to warn that a war with Ukraine is imminent as Russian President Vladimir Putin convened an emergency meeting with his country's top security officials on Monday.

The state-run RIA news agency reported that the Kremlin spokesman said that this is a big security council. The meeting is not a regular one and Putin will deliver a speech after it, Peskov told reporters.

Jake Sullivan, the US national security advisor, said on Monday that a Russian invasion of Ukraine was underway.

Sullivan told Good Morning America that President Putin and the Russians were going to execute a major military invasion of Ukraine.

Russia has long insisted that it has no plans to invade Ukraine, and that it only amassed hundreds of thousands of troops at the border for training drills as a precautionary measure against what Putin called mounting US and NATO aggression.

Efforts to find a solution to the Ukraine crisis have been unsuccessful. The White House said Biden agreed to the summit as long as Russia didn't invade Ukraine.

The Kremlin denied Monday that Putin had committed to the meeting, saying there were no concrete plans for the US and Russian leaders to meet.

The US National Security Council met on Sunday. Should Russia invade, the US has warned Putin.
