⚡️ Top US General denies Biden's claim that Americans are training Ukrainian troops in Poland

🗣 “I do not believe that we are in the process of currently training military forces from Ukraine in Poland. There are liaisons that are there, they're being given advice, and that’s different”, European Command (EUCOM) head Gen. Tod Wolters told the US Senate Armed Services Committee.

Wolters was forced into damage control after Biden appeared to reveal to reporters that the United States is training Ukrainian forces in Poland. The off-noscript occurred as he was attempting to clarify a previous gaffe, in which he suggested that American troops would be going to Ukraine soon.

During Monday's press conference, however, Biden denied he meant what he had said, explaining: "We're talking about helping train the Ukrainian troops that are in Poland".

When asked to clarify, he said that he was "referring to being with, and talking with, the Ukrainian troops that are in Poland".
