The White House announced on Friday that he will travel to Poland later this month to mark the one year anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said his trip would be from February 20 to 22.
‘In addition, President Biden will deliver remarks ahead of the one year anniversary of Russia’s brutal and unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, addressing how the United States has rallied the world to support the people of Ukraine as they defend their freedom and democracy,’ she said, ‘and how we will continue to stand with the people of Ukraine for as long as it takes with that.’
