Biden to visit Japan, but cancels Australia on upcoming trip
President Biden is leaving for Japan, but he’s cutting short his week-long foreign trip. After he attends the G-7 summit in Tokyo, the president had been scheduled to travel on to Papua New Guinea to meet with Pacific Island leaders, and then to Australia for a meeting of the leaders of the Quad partnership.
