President’s trip USAJoe Biden, a visit to Kyiv was planned secretly for several months, with only a handful of advisers and with advance notice Russiawho learned about the president’s plans a few hours before his departure from Washington.

This was revealed to the press on Monday by some of the top advisers to the American leader, including White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan, who was part of a small retinue that accompanied Biden.

Sullivan explained that Washington sent a travel notice to Moscow Biden to Kiev just “hours” before his plane took off from Andrews Air Force Base (Maryland) on the outskirts of Washington, and explained that the purpose of the message was to avoid any accident that could lead to an escalation of the conflict.

When asked by the press, the adviser refused to disclose the content of the message sent to Kremlin due to the “delicate nature” of such communications with Russia.

Visit Biden this was kept secret until after it was underway and kept secret for security reasons.

However, the trip was not spontaneous and was “carefully planned” over several months, said Jonathan Feiner, Sullivan’s “number two” on the White House National Security Council, the body in charge of US foreign policy.

Feiner said only a handful of advisers from the White House, the Pentagon and the Secret Service were involved in planning the trip for security reasons, in addition to some intelligence officers tasked with keeping the president safe. in Kyiv.

All of these advisors carefully considered every step of the way, including how Biden would get to Kyivand made other alternative plans in case there were any problems while the president was on the ground.

Trip decided by Joe Biden

Biden It was he who made the final decision to go to Kyiv on Friday, given that there were risks, but they were manageable.

The president came to this conclusion after an extensive meeting Friday in the Oval Office of the White House with his advisers and cabinet members, some of whom participated by phone, Feiner said.

Logistically, the trip was particularly challenging as the presidents USA they rarely visit war zones, and when they do, as in recent years in Iraq or Afghanistan, American troops are often on site to keep them safe.

However, the US does not have troops in Ukraine and therefore the trip required more planning and much more caution, explained White House Communications Director Kate Bedingfield.

“This visit, the visit of the President USA in an area where there is a war, this is a historic and unprecedented event,” said Bedingfield.

Despite the risks, Biden decided to go for Ukraine to demonstrate their commitment to Ukraine just four days before the anniversary of the Russian invasion that began on February 24, 2022.

During his visit, the American met with his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky and announced an additional $500 million in aid. Ukraine.

Biden has already left Kyiv after a six-hour visit, and tomorrow, Tuesday, he will begin an official visit to Poland to reaffirm his commitment to the countries on NATO’s eastern flank. (EFE)
