Other guests include Ukrainian Ambassador to the U.S. Oksana Markarova, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband Paul Pelosi, and U2 lead singer Bono.
"Each of these individuals were invited by the White House because they personify issues or themes to be addressed by the President in his speech, or they embody the Biden-Harris Administration’s policies at work for the American people," theMarkarova's appearance comes almost exactly one year after Russia invaded Ukraine, initiating a war that continues to this day.
