Plans underway for Biden to welcome Ukraine President Zelensky to White House for surprise visit

  • Summary

  • President Joe Biden and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky are planning to meet at the White House Wednesday, according to two sources familiar with the planning underway. The visit would mark his first outside Ukraine since the Russian invasion began in February. Plans are still being finalized but Zelensky’s trip to Washington, DC could also include an address to Congress while the Biden administration is trying to send Ukraine a new defense assistance package that will include Patriot missile systems. Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego serves on the House Armed Services Committee and recently led a bipartisan Congressional delegation to Kyiv. He joins AC360 to discuss how significant this visit is for Zelensky. Plus, sources tell CNN that former President Trump’s White House ethics lawyer, Stefan Passantino, told Cassidy Hutchinson to give misleading testimony to the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 attack on the Capitol. Olivia Troye is a former homeland security adviser to Vice President Mike Pence. She tells AC360 if she’s surprised by this allegation against someone in the former President’s orbit.
