The Biden administration will take executive action to respond to Russia’s alleged involvement in the Solar Winds hack and the poisoning of opposition leader Alexei Navalny within weeks, according to White House press secretary Jen Psaki.

“We have asked the intelligence community to do further work to sharpen the attribution that the previous administration made about precisely how the hack occurred, what the extent of the damage is, and what the scope and scale of the intrusion is. And we’re still in the process of working that through now,” Psaki said. “But it will be weeks, not months, before we respond.”
