Bidens welcome South Korean president, wife to White House for state visit amid leak tensions -
The leaders and their wives greeted each other in the White House’s Diplomatic Room before departing to tour the Korean War Veterans Memorial on the Washington Mall.
Mr. Yoon’s visit is the first state visit to the U.S. by a South Korean leader in 12 years. It marks the 70th anniversary of an alliance that has served as the cornerstone of U.S. strategy in Asia and given rise to South Korea as an economic superpower. Mr. Biden has been among Ukraine’s biggest boosters on the international stage, urging other nations to support their war effort.
White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan announced the initiatives Monday during a press briefing but did not offer any specifics.
