U.S. President Joe Biden is speaking live after meeting with fellow NATO leaders to discuss the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The White House announced Thursday the U.S. will welcome 100,000 Ukrainian refugees fleeing the war expand its sanctions on Russia in response to the invasion of Ukraine. It comes as President Joe Biden and Western allies opened a trio of summits in Europe, seeking new ways to limit the economic and security fallout from the conflict.
Russian forces have brought death and destruction to a large swath of Ukraine over the past four weeks, but they appear to have stalled in many places in the face of fiercer-than-expected Ukrainian resistance. NATO estimated on Wednesday that 7,000 to 15,000 Russian soldiers have been killed since the war started Feb. 24.
Here's a look at the latest developments in the war in Ukraine and the security crisis in Eastern Europe.
