President Joe Biden will visit Berlin on Friday for a meeting with Chancellor Olaf Scholz, a trip postponed earlier by Hurricane Milton, people familiar with the matter said.
Bidenâs travel will be an abbreviated version of the original plan, and no longer includes a stop at the US military base in Ramstein, where the president had been set to meet with other world leaders to discuss support for Ukraine, said the people, who discussed the plans on condition of anonymity.
While in Germany, Biden is expected to receive the nationâs highest civilian honor from President Frank-Walter Steinmeier, the people said.
Itâs unclear whether UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron will take part in Bidenâs meeting with Scholz, according to the people. Theyâd been part of the original agenda to assemble the so-called Quad of leaders from either side of the Atlantic.
