Biden and Sunak work to bridge transatlantic divides.

British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and US President Joe Biden tried to bridge the gap of age, class, and political tradition during Sunak's visit to Washington. Despite their differences, the two leaders have worked hard to maximize their relationship, with Sunak's efforts paying off as Biden spoke in glowing terms about his counterpart's ability to lead. Both leaders have spotted opportunities to turn the vast generational divide to their advantage, with Biden seeing an opportunity to impart the perspective of a leader who has lived through decades of geopolitical convulsions.
