With fighting lasting nearly a month, President Joe Biden and other world leaders will seek to speed an end to the conflict.
President Joe Biden headed to Europe Wednesday as he tries to keep NATO allies and other European partners united against Russian President Vladimir Putin and his invasion of Ukraine.
With fighting lasting nearly a month -- and Ukrainian forces unexpectedly holding Russia to a standoff -- Biden and other world leaders will seek to speed an end to the conflict.
They'll face pressure to make announcements about new sanctions on Russia, humanitarian assistance for refugees and additional support for Ukraine's military.
Putin and China will be watching, with the fate of Ukraine -- and Russia's place in the world -- hanging in the balance.
