US President Joe Biden was welcomed to Windsor with pomp and pageantry as his flying visit to the UK drew to a close.
The King warmly greeted the American leader in Windsor Castle’s quadrangle shaking hands with Biden as a guard of honour stood nearby.
As the two men shook hands, Biden touched the King’s right arm with his free hand and Charles returned the gesture.
The King and the president last met on the eve of the Queen’s funeral last September when a reception was held for dignitaries ahead of the national event.
The visit to Windsor was part of a busy day for the president, who is making a layover in London on the way to the Nato summit in Vilnius, Lithuania.
