US President Joe Biden is "considering additional sanctions" on Moscow after the death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny in an Arctic prison, he said Monday.
The White House says that Russia is developing an anti-satellite capability, publicly confirming it as the dangerous national security threat referenced a day before by a congressional leader, but added it is not a weapon to attack people.
The chairman of the U.S. House of Representatives intelligence committee warns of a "serious national security threat" and urges the White House to declassify all related information.
The White House on Thursday said that Russia has become increasingly isolated on the world stage due to sanctions and export controls. It also highlighted that North Korea is providing Moscow with ballistic missiles to attack Ukraine.
