German Chancellor Olaf Scholz will visit the White House on Feb. 7 to discuss ways to discourage a feared Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Biden administration announced Thursday.The visit of Scholz, who was installed as chancellor last month, will give President Biden an opportunity to push the NATO ally to do more to support Ukraine’s pro-Western government and to potentially penalize Russia by blocking the operation of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline.“The leaders will discuss their shared commitment to both ongoing diplomacy and joint efforts to deter further Russian aggression against Ukraine,” the White House said in a statement.
