Biden to visit Eastern Europe to discuss situation in Ukraine
The White house has confirmed that President Joseph Biden will travel to Poland on Friday to discuss the international response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The continued invasion and attacks on civilians constitute a “humanitarian and human rights crisis,” said White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki.
Biden will travel to Warsaw where he will hold a bilateral meeting with President Andrzej Duda. Over 2 million refugees have entered Poland from Ukraine since the start of the Russian invasion on Feb. 24.
Biden’s Poland trip will come a day after he meets in Brussels with NATO Allies, G7 Leaders and European Union Leaders to discuss international efforts to support Ukraine after Russia’s invasion.
Biden will host a call Monday at 11am EST with President Emmanuel Macron of France, Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany, Prime Minister Mario Draghi of Italy, and Prime Minister Boris Johnson of the United Kingdom to discuss their coordinated responses to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
