US Vice President Kamla Harris is expected to meet Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in Munich on Saturday, in what is likely to be a strong expression of diplomatic support for the European country, a day after US President Joe Biden said he was “convinced” that Russia made the decision to invade Ukraine.
According to a senior US administration official who spoke to reporters on condition of anonymity, Harris will also deliver a speech warning Russia that any invasion of Ukraine would likely lead to a larger NATO deployment on its doorstep, and that it would face a huge financial cost if it proceeded to do so. that step.
The official added that her message would make clear, however, that the United States remained open to diplomacy “even at this late hour,” even as Biden and other administration officials issued stern warnings that the window for diplomacy was closing.
On Friday, Harris met with NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg and leaders from three Baltic countries, and said that Russia must show that it is open to diplomacy, while noting that there is a unified position among the 30 NATO member states, and warned Moscow of dire consequences if it invaded Ukraine.
