Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Biden in Ukraine: How the president's surprise visit was kept a secret
A train journey from Warsaw, the capital of Poland, to Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, normally takes about 15 hours by overnight express train to cover a distance of nearly 700 kilometers. On February 20, US President Joe Biden cut the trip to ten hours to reach Kyiv to show himself and his commitment to the people in Ukraine, the voters in the US, and the leaders of NATO and allies. The unannounced visit to Ukraine where there is no US military presence is so unprecedented that surprised not only politicians but also journalists who usually are good at inferring such a move from small pieces of information of unusuality. How could his staff arrange such a risky trip in secrecy? What could this trip mean to the war?
Enjoy reading the article and learning about this surprise visit that took place a few days before the anniversary of the War in Ukraine.
