Vice President Kamala Harris will attend the Munich Security Conference this month, a White House official confirmed to CNN on Wednesday.
Harris’ latest high-profile foreign trip comes as the US has partnered with key allies in attempt to deter Russia from invading Ukraine.
The vice president is expected to hold multiple in-person meetings with those allies as the trip will serve as yet another major diplomatic test for Harris.
A White House official said Harris will deliver remarks asserting the US commitment to NATO and its allies.
Reuters was first to report the news of the trip.
This is a breaking story and will be updated.
