New Delhi, Sep 8 : The US president Joe Biden on Friday evening arrived in New Delhi to attend the G20 summit. He was received by Minister V K Singh at the airport.

Earlier today, prior to his departure for New Delhi, Biden had posted on X (formerly Twitter) that "every time we (the G20) engage, we get better. I'm headed to the G20 - the premier forum for international economic cooperation... focused on making progress on Americans' priorities, delivering for developing nations, and showing our commitment to the G20 as a forum that can deliver." Biden, 80, had tested negative for COVID-19 before his departure. He will be following the COVID-19 guidelines of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) during his visit to India and his trip to Vietnam, the White House had said.
