Biden meets with Japan's prime minister ahead of G7 summit.

President Joe Biden arrived in Japan for the G7 summit, where he met with Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida to discuss close US-Japan relations amid China's growing military and economic ambitions, as well as Russia's ongoing war in Ukraine. Biden plans to coalesce the leaders of some of the world's largest economies around a commitment to take on Beijing's aggressions and support Ukraine amid Russia's invasion. The leaders will also convene a discussion about artificial intelligence. The US president places a premium on collective action and wants a unified front when it comes to issues like Taiwan, the South China Sea, and Beijing's coercive economic practices.
