Watch as Joe Biden meets King Charles at Windsor Castle

PA

Watch from Windsor Castle as Joe Biden met with King Charles III on Monday 10 July.

The US president arrived in London on Sunday evening and hailed the “rock-solid” relationship between America and the UK as he met Rishi Sunak in Downing Street.

He praised the closeness of ties between the two countries as he and the prime minister held talks in the garden of No 10.

Mr Biden then sat down for tea with the King to discuss the climate crisis following his meeting with Mr Sunak.

Though it is not a full-blown state visit, the president was treated to a display of pageantry at Windsor Castle.

He received a royal salute and heard the US national anthem courtesy of the Welsh Guards, before having tea with Charles.

They also met attendees of a climate finance mobilisation forum, where finance and philanthropic leaders will have discussed the support they can offer to poorer nations.
