As chaos spreads in the aftermath of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, President Biden is dispatching Vice President Harris to Eastern Europe on an urgent mission this week to reinforce Western unity, reassure allies of U.S. protection and promise aid as more than 1 million Ukrainian refugees flee their homes.
Harris will meet with leaders in Poland on Thursday and their counterparts in Romania a day later, in what amounts to an extension of her recent trip to a global security conference in Germany. There, in the earliest days of the Russian invasion, Harris met with an array of European and world leaders, including NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, in an effort to hold the Western alliance together.
“It’s clearly an important mission,” said Richard Weitz, a former Defense Department official who is now with the Hudson Institute. “These countries took unprecedented risks in coming to Ukraine’s defense, clearly to the annoyance of the Russian leadership, and so they’re probably looking for reassurance.”
The fractious politics of NATO has been one of the central challenges of the current crisis. The Biden administration has worked hard, with significant success, to unify the military alliance of 30 countries who have a variety of interests and sensitivities. NATO’s easternmost members, such as Poland and Romania, have been especially anxious that Russia will turn its aggression on them next.

This administration is trying to piss off all of our European allies.
she is probably negotiating the vig that she and the big guy get for admitting thousands of refugees.
She should visit Texas, close the border and help companies drill for energy.
The best we can hope for is that she won’t tell any Polish jokes…
She’ll give a rousing speech:
“Poland and Romania are in Europe. Russia is also a country in Europe. Russia is bigger than Poland or Romania. It would be wrong for Russia to attack Poland and Romania.”
That sucks!
Is he going to find the “root cause”?
No it doesn’t.
“Russia is a big country.....”
Wanted her ass out of town while he tries to figure out what to do about outrageous gas prices.
SloJo can’t blow his way out of this mess.
I wonder if she could find either country on a map before going over there.
The only chance we have is if she takes an entire suitcase of knee pads and pray that has some positive impact.
Smart. Send her to the front lines too... then it will be Hello Vice President HilLIARy.
I think Biden should send Harris to Iran instead.
“Putin may circle Kyiv with tanks, but he’ll never gain the hearts and souls of the Iranian people.”
Joe Biden, 2022 State if the Union speech
Polish delegates whisper to one another “Just nod your head and smile. Ignore anything she says”
LOL and Kamalamadingdong was mouthing the correct word in the background.
Maybe she can give them lessons on how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Never underestimate Harris ability to F**k things up WORSE...................
