President Joe Biden is currently focused on his recovery from Covid-19 but is still being kept informed about national security matters, according to the White House. National security spokesperson John Kirby mentioned during a phone briefing that while there were no specific briefings or schedule items to address, Biden is being regularly updated as usual.
Despite the President's health situation, there is an expectation that his meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Washington next week will proceed as planned. Kirby emphasized the importance of prioritizing Biden's health and recovery from Covid-19 during this time.
Regarding the impact of Biden's health on the upcoming Netanyahu meeting, Kirby stated that it was too early to determine any potential changes. The administration is closely monitoring the situation and ensuring that the President's well-being remains the top priority.
