President Biden is heading to Belgium and Poland to meet with NATO members and European allies on maintaining a unified front against Russia's war in Ukraine.
He's expected to arrive Wednesday in Brussels, Belgium, where he'll meet with NATO allies, G7 partners and European Union leaders. Afterward, he'll head to Warsaw, Poland, to meet with Polish President Andrzej Duda. NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg says Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will address world leaders gathering in Brussels Thursday for an extraordinary meeting of the alliance.
Mr. Biden will join international partners in imposing further sanctions on Russia while he's abroad, national security adviser Jake Sullivan said. The Poland stop was added in part to thank Duda for his assistance to refugees and for his partnership in general, White House press secretary Jen Psaki noted.
Poland has taken in more Ukrainians than any surrounding country — about 2 million Ukrainians have flooded into Poland since the war began in late February.
The president's trip comes as Russian forces have encountered fierce resistance from Ukrainians and have yet to take Kyiv, Ukraine's capital. A senior U.S. defense official told reporters Tuesday the U.S. is starting to see indications the Ukrainians are now able to take back territory the Russians have seized, and Ukrainians are fighting to take back the cities of Izyum and Kherson.
The Russians are at slightly under 90% of the combat power they assembled around Ukraine before the invasion, the defense official said. The Pentagon is seeing indicators that Russians are concerned about keeping their ships fueled, and some of the Russian soldiers are suffering from frostbite because they don't have the right gear.
