United State Secretary of State Antony Blinken left Thursday for eastern Europe to hold meetings with NATO allies and other European leaders in an effort to find a diplomatic solution to the situation in Ukraine.<\/p>\n

In a release, State Department spokesman Ned Price said Blinken will first travel to Brussels for a NATO Foreign Ministerial, as well as meet with his European Union counterparts for the G-7 Ministerial Meeting.<\/p>\n

Blinken travels to Poland on Saturday for meetings with Polish leaders, including Foreign Minister Zbigniew Rau, \u201cto discuss further security assistance in the face of Russia\u2019s continued aggression.\u201d<\/p>\n

Price said the secretary of state also will thank Poland for generously welcoming hundreds of thousands of displaced persons from Ukraine and discuss how the United States can augment humanitarian assistance efforts for those fleeing Putin\u2019s war.<\/p>\n

Later Saturday, Blinken is scheduled to travel to Moldova to meet with President Maia Sandu, Prime Minister Natalia Gavrilita, and Foreign Minister Nicu Popescu to discuss Moldova\u2019s efforts to receive and assist refugees, and underscore U.S. support for that effort.<\/p>\n

From March 6 through March 8, Blinken travels to Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia to meet with leaders in those countries to discuss joint efforts to support Ukraine, strengthen NATO\u2019s deterrence and defense, and promote democracy and human rights.<\/p>\n

At a news briefing Wednesday, Blinken said intensive diplomacy with allies and partners continues with the aim of ending the crisis in Ukraine.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cIf there are diplomatic steps that we can take that the Ukrainian government believes would be helpful, we\u2019re prepared to take them \u2014 even as we continue to support Ukraine\u2019s ability to defend itself.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
