The potential trip would follow a similar itinerary that was undertaken by Vice President Kamala Harris.
Biden also announced a ban on Russia imports of oil in a further move to hurt Russia's lucrative petroleum industry.
The Biden administration is reportedly considering having the president travel to Europe near the end of March to meet with allied leaders, two sources within the White House toldWhile the exact dates of the foreign trip remain unknown, the itinerary would reportedly include a presidential stop in Brussels—NATO is headquartered in the Belgian capital city. Following this, reports said, Biden would then visit Poland for a meeting with the Polish head of state.
If Air Force One does end up flying to Europe, Biden would be echoing the foreign trip made by Harris last week. Diplomatic talks had stalled between the two allies after the U.S. rejected a proposal from Poland that would have sent Polish fighter planes to a U.S. air base in Germany for potential use by Ukraine. The U.S. blocked the proposal in order to mitigate any possible backlash from Russia.
