The central bank, however, downgrades growth forecasts while predicting core PCE will hit 4.1% at the end of the year. President Joe Biden calls Russia’s Vladimir Putin a “war criminal”, eliciting a sharp rebuke from the Kremlin. Washington approves up to $800m of military assistance to Kiev as Congress greets a video address by Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelenskyy with a standing ovation.
