On Thursday, Egypt will be the destination of US President Joe Biden on a week-long foreign tour that includes Asian countries as well.

Biden will face during his tour some thorny issues related to his country's foreign policy. This comes in light of the support he received thanks to better-than-expected results for Democrats in the midterm congressional elections.

From Thursday, US president Joe Biden is on a tour that will take him to Egypt, to participate in the United Nations Climate Summit (COP27) tomorrow, Friday.

He will then be a guest of Cambodia to attend the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and East Asia Summit on November 12 and 13. Then the US president will travel to Indonesia to attend the annual meeting of the Group of Twenty of the world's largest economies on November 14-15.

It is reported that Biden will hold his first face-to-face meeting with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping during the G20 summit, where he hopes to explore Xi's "red lines" and talk with allies about punishing Russia for its war on Ukraine. It will also discuss how to contain North Korea after it recently tested dozens of missiles.
