WARSAW, Poland - President Joe Biden’s visit to Poland as his final stop in Europe this week offers a chance to underscore the U.S.
commitment to protect a key NATO member on Ukraine’s doorstep, and thank Poles for their generous welcome to refugees fleeing Russia's invasion.But Poland is also a complicated ally whose populist leaders are accused by some European partners of riding roughshod over democratic norms, and many liberal Poles will be seeking a sign that the U.S.
remembers its role in promoting democracy.The two-day visit starting Friday follows a trio of emergency war summits in Brussels.
It brings Biden to a country that has accepted the lion’s share of the more than 3.5 million Ukrainians who have fled the month-old war.
