Biden will announce the news in his State of the Union address, a source said.
Russian forces are continuing their attempted push through Ukraine from multiple directions, while Ukrainians, led by President Volodymr Zelenskyy, are putting up "stiff resistance," according to U.S. officials.
The attack began Feb. 24 as Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a "special military operation."
Russians moving from Belarus towards Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, don't appear to have advanced closer towards the city since coming within about 20 miles, although smaller advanced groups have been fighting gun battles with Ukrainian forces inside the capital since at least Friday.
Russia has been met by sanctions from the U.S., Canada and countries throughout Europe, targeting Russia's economy and Putin himself.
President Joe Biden will participate in a NATO conference virtually from the Situation Room beginning at 9 a.m. ET Friday, a White House official confirmed.
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg will offer public opening remarks and a press conference after the meeting.
Russian troops have reportedly taken full control of the area around the Chernobyl nuclear power station, including the plant itself, according to Ukraine’s prime minister.
“Unfortunately, we are obliged to inform that as things stand the Chernobyl Zone, the so-called ‘Exclusion Zone’ and all the Chernobyl nuclear power station have been taken under the control of the Russian armed groups,” prime minister Denis Schmygal told UNIAN, Ukraine’s main news wire.
A senior defense official said they couldn't confirm reports that Russian troops seized control. "We do believe with some confidence that some Russian soldiers have moved through that area and may still be in that area, but we can't confirm ... that they've taken control," the official said.
The Chernobyl power plant, the site of the world's worst nuclear accident, is located about 60 miles north of the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv. The Chernobyl exclusion zone begins almost immediately below Ukraine's border with Belarus.
The nuclear facilities at Chernobyl are "operating safely and securely," Ukraine's regulatory body informed the United Nations nuclear watchdog.
The International Atomic Energy Agency expressed alarm at the fighting around Chernobyl, but in a note to the IAEA, Ukraine confirmed that "unidentified armed forces" have taken control of all facilities, and that there were no casualties or destruction at the industrial site, the IAEA said.
Still, any attack on nuclear facilities is considered a "violation of the principles of the United Nations Charter, international law, and the Statue of the Agency," the IAEA's members agreed in 2009.

The U.S. is not only sanctioning Russia, but sanctioning 24 Belarusian officials, business people, defense agencies and firms, state-owned companies, and banks and financial institutions for "Belarus's support for, and facilitation of" Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the Treasury Department said in a statement.
"The Lukashenka regime has continued to erode democracy in Belarus and has become increasingly subservient to Russia in the process," the Treasury Department claimed.
The targets include two state-owned banks which the department says are "among the most important banks in Belarus." Along with sanctioning Russia's banks, which are very involved in Belarus's economy, "a significant portion of the Belarusian financial sector is now subject to U.S. sanctions," the department said.
The other major target is Belarus' defense industry, with defense firms, defense business leaders, the defense secretary and the State Secretary of the Security Council of Belarus all hit.

The Federal Aviation Administration said it's now prohibiting U.S. airlines from operating over Ukraine, Belarus and parts of western Russia.
Previously the FAA was only prohibiting U.S. airlines from operating over eastern Ukraine.
This ban does not apply to the military.
