WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden departs for Europe Sunday for a trip that will include his first meeting with King Charles III since his coronation, followed by a NATO summit.
Jake Sullivan, the national security adviser, told reporters that in addition to engagements with the king at Windsor Castle, and with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, Biden will “engage with a forum that will focus on mobilizing climate finance, especially private finance off the sidelines for clean energy deployment and adaptation in developing countries.”
First lady Jill Biden attended the coronation in May. For the president, meeting with the king may be overshadowed by headlines later in the week from Vilnius, Lithuania, where a NATO summit will also include engagements with partner countries.
