Vice President Kamala Harris' trip to the Polish capital has taken an unexpected turn as she's parachuting into the middle of unexpected diplomatic turbulence over fighter jets. A day after the United States declined Poland's surprise proposal to provide Soviet-built MiG-29 fighter jets to the U.S. to give to Ukraine, Harris will meet with the country's top leaders in Warsaw, where she will need to try to smooth over the controversy. A major aim of the trip is to show unity among NATO allies in response to Russia's war on Ukraine. On Wednesday, a Russian airstrike devastated a maternity hospital in the Ukrainian city of Mariupol, killing three people, including a child, and wounding 17, officials said. Harris, who arrived in Poland on Wednesday, will meet with Polish President Andrzej Duda and Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki. She will also confer with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who is also visiting Poland.

  1. 10:57 “I am here… standing… here… on the Northern flank… on the Eastern flank… talking about… what we have… in terms of… the Eastern flank… ” 😞

    1. @Rohiel Shah We’re supposed to believe she was led a debate team and became a deputy district attorney at age 26 the same year she was admitted to the bar.

  2. Her response to: Where are the MIGs the Ukrainians were promised? Was just “we stand with Ukraine”…The most non-answer to a question I’ve ever witnessed. At least she didn’t cackle when she said it.

    1. She can always ,,help” by making a speech or just make a dance on TikTok. Because that is what most people do so it must be helpful, right?

    2. No one is better at non-answer than Canada’s Prime Minister Jusrin Trudeau .Kamala Harris is a mere appretrice.

    1. She pretty much did, later in this extremely lousy word salad of talking points. She is very unprofessional and falling far short of WHAT IS ACTUALLY NEEDED, A FRIGGIN’ MONTH AGO.

  3. Is there a REASON that NONE of the coverage has Translated Closed Captions?!? I can watch a Samuri video from 1972 and it has the words…

    1. No doubt we are being ridiculed by the rest over the world over this clown show and the clown show Biden puts on, along with criminal element Hunter Biden.

  4. All the questions are about usa not supporting the Polish plane transfer. And all she describes is how USA is doing all it can to help. It’s a joke, I want a refund on the USA’s first black female VP.

  5. Why did she even go there? This was a waste of time, U.S. citizens money that could of been put to better use, and the FUEL cost! Jet setting around the world… for what?
    Political party points. Points awarded: – 50 points. Oh, and the cringe factor: infinity!

    1. So she can say “I went to Europe” Just watch her brag about it in a few days. You will not see her at the border.

  6. Her speech should include” “When I was a little girl in Canada, my mother took me to a Ukrainian parade. From my stroller my first words were, Slava Ukraini, or maybe fweedom, or maybe USA, depending on who I am addressing”

    1. She says her first words were “fweedom” (as an affluent mixed race Canadian baby) at a parade/rally when she was a baby, when speaking to a Black audience.

  7. My deepest sympathies are extended to the President of Poland. Imagine having to meet with Kamala Harris and Justin Trudeau on the same day. That is just to much to ask of the poor man.

  8. She explained to the Polish president that Ukraine is a country in Europe. It is a small country. Russia is a big country. The big country invaded the small country. That’s bad.

    1. Maybe comparing to Russia Ukraine is a small country, but actually it’s not that small there are over 40 million people.

  9. Like Poland is doing, other NATO signatories must carry their weight, too. Just as Trump pushed & implemented.

  10. Another episode of Poland 🇵🇱 history: Fine we will do things by ourselves because other countries can’t do f!!!

  11. I was gonna read her biography thinking she is a wise and strong interesting woman but after her acting and gigling plus saying the usual trivial stuff I decided not to. Sleepy Joe seems to be even more reliable as a president. Good bless America having such leaders

  12. Deep respect to interpreter, and respect for US state for providing humanitarian help. BTW. Is US willing to help bring Putin and his dogs to justice for these crimes? (maybe even not just for these crimes) – or would that be too much ?

  13. “It’s time to do what we have been doing and that time is every day. “Every day it’s time to agree”. Kackala Harris token VP.
