President Joe Biden met with Polish President Andrzej Duda during a historic visit Saturday where the allies presented a united front against Russian aggression and reaffirmed their commitment to the NATO alliance.
The U.S. considers its commitment to defend other members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization “a sacred obligation,” Biden told Duda during a meeting at the Presidential Palace in Warsaw.
Biden is expected to meet with Ukrainian refugees later Saturday and he will deliver remarks that the White House is billing as a major speech before departing for the U.S.
Biden’s visit comes as Russia appears to be recalibrating its military strategies in Ukraine.
