US President Joe Biden affirmed the strength of relations with UK, expressing his overwhelming happiness at the recent talks between both countries.

"I think we’re moving along in a way that’s positive, but our relationship is rock solid between the United States, Great Britain. And I look forward to our discussions," Biden said during a private meeting with Sunak, at the British government headquarters in London.

On his part, Sunak said, "Great for us to carry on our conversations, which we were having just a month or so ago, it feels like, in the White House, where we signed the Atlantic Declaration — the first-of-its-kind economic partnership, which I know we’ll be talking about today: how do we strengthen our cooperation, joint economic security to the benefit of our citizens." 

It is worth mentioning that, Biden arrived on Monday, in London, on an official visit.

This visit comes a few days before the NATO summit at the level of leaders in Lithuania, during a difficult period that the alliance is going through due to Russian-Ukrainian war.
