U.S. and world leaders rushed to condemn a Russian invasion of Ukraine on Wednesday night, warning of heavy sanctions to come for the attack announced in a televised addressed by Vladimir Putin.
Here’s what some of those leaders said:

The Lithuanian president said only a united and strong response by democratic Western allies could stop Russia.
“Never before have we been so strong & so well prepared to face external challenges together with our Allies,” Gitanas Nausėda tweeted. The future of Europe “may depend on how we react in the coming hours & days.”
