Top Military brass and administration officials contradicted Joe Biden's claim that U.S. forces are training Ukrainian troops in Poland as the president continues to face backlash following remarks claiming Vladimir Putin needs to be removed from power.
'I do not believe we are in the process of currently training military forces from Ukraine in Poland,' General Tod Wolters told the Senate Armed Services Committee during a Tuesday hearing.
Wolters, the Commander of the U.S. European Command and North Atlantic Treaty Organization's (NATO) Supreme Allied Commander Europe continued: 'There are liaisons that are there. They're being given advice.'
'And that's different than I think [what] you're referring to with respect to training,' Wolters said during questioning from Republican Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas.
During a press briefing proposing his Fiscal Year 2023 plan, Biden issued yet another gaffe when trying to recover from comments calling for Putin's ouster, which the White House quickly walked back on.

BEFORE Putin made any move, we had 150 Personnel training the Ukraine Army. I’m sure I can find it.
Joe Biden, the Amazing Gaffe-o-Matic!
FJB is a very dangerous man to have in the Oval Office. Period.
Seemed to let it slip? I watched that, it was a matter of fact statement. Now if you watch the soldiers from the 82nd when Biden spoke to them, Biden made gaffe after gaffe, only to be greeted by forced golf claps.
They should establish a new office solely for correcting the errors of a demented, illegally installed President. How long can this charade last?
I think Biden was accurate but it was information that was classified. Well, it’s no longer classified.
It is going to continue untill someone in his administration gets up and says..” OK Thats enough!” “Get this idiot to hell outta here!”
1 trip. 5 gaffes. https://t.co/k4kJfjq078— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) March 29, 2022
Waiting for the inevitable “I’m gonna take Putin behind the bleachers and nuke him!”
plausible..he cant be trusted
Sounds like deja vu of our “military advisors” in French Indochina.
Sad thing is, he’s been a gaffe master the whole half century he has been in D.C. This isn’t a new thing.
It’s really mystery to me that a guy with these kinds of gaffes all the time became a politician, let it alone US President
Yes the troops were obviously just thrilled to be there.
Corruption and fully half the population is so stupid they couldn’t keep themselves alive for a week without our cradle to grave welfare state.
I'm pretty sure this is part of the point that Putin has been trying to make (about the US bellying its way to Russia's front door).
Question is... did they even get there. My recollection is that the training mission was barely announced before the Russians invaded.
