Former President Barack Obama met with U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on Monday, marking their first in-person meeting since Sunak assumed office. The encounter was described as a 'courtesy visit' by Obama, who was seen leaving Sunak's residence in London.
The meeting took place amidst reports of a longstanding rivalry between Obama, President Biden, and their respective teams. Allegations surfaced that Obama's team had doubts about Biden's capabilities, particularly in areas such as foreign policy and political strategy. Some former Biden aides expressed concerns that Obama's associates were dismissive of Biden's experience and organizational skills.
