WASHINGTON (AA) - US President Joe Biden will travel to Europe later this month to attend two major summits, according to a White House spokeswoman Wednesday.

Biden will travel to Schloss Elmau in southern Germany on June 25 to attend the G7 Leaders’ Summit, Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement.

"The President and G7 leaders will discuss a range of the most pressing global issues, including the G7’s unwavering support for a democratic, sovereign, and prosperous Ukraine, economic and democratic resilience, tackling the climate crisis, development infrastructure, global health security, and the food and energy crisis caused by Russia’s war of aggression," she said.

Biden will then head to Madrid to join the 2022 NATO Summit.

"Allied leaders will endorse a new Strategic Concept to guide NATO’s transformation over the next decade, from strengthening deterrence and defense, to building resilience against transnational threats including cyber and climate, to deepening partnerships with democratic partners in Europe and Asia in order to strengthen the rules-based international order," said the statement.
