Jill Biden, the first lady of the United States, will travel to Romania and Slovakia from May 5 to 9 to meet with US military and embassy personnel, displaced Ukrainian parents and children, humanitarian aid workers, and teachers, according to her office.

Biden will meet with Ukrainian mothers and children who have been forced to flee their homes as a result of Russia’s war against Ukraine on Sunday, which is Mother’s Day in the United States, according to her office.

On May 6, Vice President Joe Biden’s wife will meet with US military personnel at Mihail Kogalniceau Airbase in Romania before travelling to Bucharest to meet with Romanian officials, US embassy personnel, humanitarian aid workers, and teachers working with displaced Ukrainian children.

Biden will meet with government officials, refugees, and aid workers in the Slovakian cities of Bratislava, Kosice, and Vysne Nemecke, according to her office.

Biden’s visit is the latest high-level US support for Ukraine and neighbouring countries that are assisting Ukrainian refugees.

During an unannounced visit to Kyiv on Sunday, US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi met Ukrainian President Vlodymyr Zelenskiy.

Jill Biden has been involved as well. She and her Polish counterpart, Agata Kornhauser-Duda, collaborated in March to get medical aid to the front lines of the refugee crisis sparked by Russia’s invasion.

Russia’s actions are referred to as a “special military operation.”

According to United Nations data, more than 3 million Ukrainians had fled to Poland by April 27, with Romania taking in around 817,300 and Slovakia taking in nearly 372,000.

Jennifer Lopez ‘let go of her’ high-heeled ego while working with Ben Affleck

As Jennifer Lopez navigates her separation from Ben Affleck, she prioritizes her career, notably in the film Unstoppable.

Jennifer Lopez has “let go of her ego” to prioritise her career and personal growth as she navigates her separation from Ben Affleck.

The 55-year-old actress and singer, during an interview with Amazon/MGM, opened up about working on the upcoming film Unstoppable, a project she co-starred in while estranged from her husband.

“It was an honour to be a part of Anthony [Robles] and to play Judy,” Jennifer shared. “I approached the role with a complete lack of ego where you have to go in there and have so much respect for the person you are playing because it’s her story.”

“I disappeared, there was no Jennifer, no J. Lo. That person on the screen is just Judy. Luckily, I got to spend time with her and see who she was alone and as a mother.”

“Unstoppable is a very different movie than [Small Things Like These], but in a way it’s similarly rooted in the passion of really talented artists,” Ben told Entertainment Toninght just couple of weeks back. “Billy Goldenberg and Jennifer and Don Cheadle and Jharrel and Bobby Cannavale – all of whom were really passionate about this film.”

After reuniting and marrying in 2022, Jennifer filed for divorce in August 2024. Reports of marital struggles, including living separately, surfaced months before the filing.

“He’s focusing on his work and his kids now,” an insider told InTouch Weekly. “Ben already moved out … They’ll never stop loving each other, but she can’t control him, and he can’t change her.”
