The U.S. Secretary of State believes Russia could attack before the night is over. That's what Antony Blinken said Wednesday when speaking with NBC Nightly News' Lester Holt. He explained that Russia has positioned its forces at "the final point of readiness," so "everything seems to be in place for Russia to engage in a major aggression against Ukraine." In a follow-up question, Blinken said he can't put a date or exact time on the invasion, but everything is in place for Russia to move forward. This comes as the U.N. is planning to hold an emergency meeting tonight at 9:30 p.m. Eastern Time.
