US President Joe Biden will host his Argentine counterpart in Washington this week after a planned meeting was postponed last year, the White House has announced. Biden’s meeting with President Alberto Fernandez will be held on the sidelines of the second Summit for Democracy on March 29, White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement on Saturday.

Biden and Fernandez had originally been set to meet in July last year. That meeting was postponed after the US president tested positive for Covid-19. The two leaders will “celebrate 200 years of bilateral relations.”
