Biden from Poland: I regret not going to Ukraine to see the suffering of citizens

Joe Biden has arrived today in Poland, following the meeting of the extraordinary summit in Brussels yesterday on the war in Ukraine and sanctions against Russia.

I'm here in Poland to see directly the humanitarian crisis and, frankly, part of my disappointment is that I can't see the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine very closely. They won't let me,” he said.

I'm guessing what's happening in Ukraine, but I can't wait to hear from you in the humanitarian community what you see. ”

Biden said Ukrainians need essential goods like food, blankets, money and medicine. The Beden administration announced yesterday that the United States will provide more than $1 billion in humanitarian aid to Ukrainians affected by war.

Some 3.6 million refugees have left Ukraine, according to UN estimates, where most of them have arrived in Poland.

The Ukrainian Wars have come to your doorstep. You are the ones who are putting your life at risk in some cases... and the American people are proud to rely on your efforts,” said the American president of Polish citizens. /abcnews.al/
