President Biden To Deliver Remarks Shortly

US

US President Joe Biden is shortly due to deliver remarks at the White House on "lowering health care costs." LIVESTREAM

  • The speech is Biden first public remarks since yesterday's call with Chinese President Xi Jinping and two actions this week which have further strained US-Israel relations: An airstrike which killed an US-Canadian aid worker in Gaza and the killing of a high ranking Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corp commander in Damascus. The President may choose to address some of these issues in ad hoc remarks at the top of the speech or in a back-and-forth with reporters at the end.
  • Biden said in a statement yesterday on the air strike which killed seven aid workers: "Israel has not done enough to protect aid workers... Incidents like yesterday’s simply should not happen. Israel has also not done enough to protect civilians."
