The summit will be attended by President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden, which is also going to be Biden’s first overseas trip since he took office in January. This meeting is also the biggest in-person diplomatic event since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Palace stated that the monarch will meet President Biden and Jill Biden while they are in the U.K. for the Group of Seven summit. During the summit, the Queen will meet other world leaders as well as the event will also be attended by the leaders of UK, France, Germany, Italy, Canada and Japan.

With this meeting, President Joe Biden will become 13th serving American leader to meet the monarch. Before this, the Queen met former US President Donald Trump and his wife Melania Trump at the Palace in 2019. Her Majesty was also visited by Barack Obama a day after her 90th birthday in 2016.

According to the Royal Central, President Biden will also enjoy a visit to the House of Commons with a personal invitation from Sir Lindsay Hoyle, the Speaker of the House. Apparently, this perk wasn’t offered to Biden’s predecessor Donald Trump at the time of his visit.
