U.S. President Joe Biden and Moldovan President Maia Sandu meet in Warsaw on February 21.

Moldovan President Maia Sandu said on February 22 that at a meeting the previous day in Warsaw she invited U.S. President Joe Biden to "revisit" her country, which shares a 1,200-kilometer border with Ukraine. "Invited President Biden to revisit our country," she said on Facebook. The White House said Biden had "reaffirmed strong U.S. support for Moldova's sovereignty and territorial integrity" to Sandu and stressed U.S. interest in Moldova's political and economic "resilience," but did not mention the invite. Biden visited Moldova in 2011 when he was U.S. vice president.
