U.S. President Joe Biden told U.S. troops in Poland about Ukraine: "You're gonna see when you're there."

Context

 

According to The Associated Press, Biden's remarks were given in front of U.S. troops who "had been sent near Poland’s border [with Ukraine] to assist with the humanitarian emergency and to bolster the U.S. military presence on the eastern flank of NATO." The words, "and you're gonna see when you're there," were spoken right after the president mentioned the bravery of Ukrainian citizens. Later, the White House once again told reporters that U.S. troops would not be deployed to fight in the war in Ukraine.
