President Biden is expected to go to Warsaw, on Friday for a bilateral meeting with Polish President Andrzej Duda, the statement added. Further, the President would speak on how the US is reacting to the humanitarian and human rights disaster that Russia's "unjustifiable and unprovoked attack" on Ukraine has caused. NATO to assist Ukraine to protect against potential mass-casualty chemical or nuclear weapon attack NATO officials have been preparing to send additional soldiers to Eastern Europe to avoid Russia from invading any of the alliance's countries. According to NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg, the organisation would also authorise transferring weapons to Ukraine to assist in protecting against potential mass-casualty chemical or nuclear weapon attack by Russia. According to media reports, Stoltenberg announced the deployment of four additional combat troops to Slovakia, Hungary, Bulgaria, as well as Romania, with a total strength of 1,000-1,500 troops. The troops would remain in position for as long as required, he added. Meanwhile, as per a document obtained by CNN detailing the equipment needed, Ukraine has modified its comprehensive list for extra military help from the US government in the last few days to include hundreds of additional anti-aircraft as well as anti-tank missiles than originally asked. Comparable lists were filed by the Ukrainians in previous weeks, but a new request to US senators appears to indicate a rising demand for American-made Stinger anti-aircraft missiles and Javelin anti-tank missiles, with Ukraine claiming it urgently requires 500 of each every day.
