\"Now, there's no reason we should need to because there's no reason that there should be war in Ukraine as it is, and we've made it very clear to Russia that NATO territory will be defended not just by the United States, but by our allies,\" he later added.

Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, at a roundtable at the University of South Carolina's School of Law on Monday, said while he is against a no-fly zone over Ukraine, he would support one if Russia used chemical weapons -- which the senator called \"a war crime of monumental proportion.\" 

\"If there's a chemical attack by the Russians in Ukraine, that would be a war crime of monumental proportion and all the treaties we've tried to construct around the use of chemical weapons will be considered a joke if he doesn't pay a price. So, I would be for a no-fly zone then,\" Graham said

Negotiators from Russia and Ukraine met Monday to see if they could broker a ceasefire and a potential peace deal, but the virtual meeting was stopped due to what Ukraine's presidential adviser called a \"technical pause.\" The talks are scheduled to continue Tuesday.

The fourth round of talks come as a senior U.S. official told Raddatz on Monday that Russian attacks on Ukraine will increase, with the western city of Lviv, a highly-populated area, among potential targets. Russia may target the city because \"they want to create more terror,\" the official said.

Over the weekend, Biden approved the shipment of $200 million in additional lethal aid to Ukraine, including antitank and antiaircraft weapons, after Congress approved a new aid package, with those materials expected to arrive in Ukraine from prepositioned U.S. military stations in Europe and the U.S.

Largely unified on the issue, Congress this week will also vote to codify Biden's executive action taken Friday, which downgraded normal trade relations with Russia -- the latest example of how lawmakers have pushed the White House to take forceful steps against Russia.

And amid fears China could supply ally Russia with weapons, national security adviser Jake Sullivan met in Rome on Monday with China's top diplomat, Yang Jiechi, in the first high-level, in-person meeting since Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
