WASHINGTON (AP) — Vice President Joe Biden will visit Ukraine later this month to meet with government and citizen leaders.

The White House says Biden will travel to the capital of Kiev on April 22 for a visit that will focus on the international community's efforts to help stabilize and strengthen Ukraine's economy.

The White House said Saturday that Biden also will assist Ukraine in its efforts aimed at constitutional reform, decentralization, anti-corruption, and free and fair presidential elections set for May 25.

As Ukraine deals with possible bankruptcy, uprisings in the east by pro-Russian separatists have unsettled the country. With tens of thousands of Russian troops deployed along the Ukrainian border, Ukraine and its allies worry that Russia could follow its annexation of Crimea by invading eastern Ukraine.

Oh boy, how exciting. Bobblehead Biden's taking a field trip to the Ukraine to pour gas on a giant soviet-style bonfire.

Isn’t is a breach of etiquette to send Biden anywhere other than Chuck-E-Cheez?

well, on the one hand I want to say how embarrassing it is for the us, but on the other, all worldwide elected officials nowadays are clowns so maybe its a wash.

This quite literally made me laugh. It is like introducing Alfred E. Neuman to the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Is that the whitehouse’s way of raising the white flag? Since no one could possibly expect that dolt to do anything but embarrass himself and the people he represents, sending him in is kinda like saying “see, we’ve failed, let’s send in the clown to distract people from OUR failure”.

A waste of time and tax payer dollars. Then again, it would keep Plugs out of the U.S. for a while...
