They will then fly on to Lithuania for a NATO summit with other world leaders tomorrow to discuss Ukraine.
It is the President’s first time in Downing Street since Rishi took over as PM.
He was greeted on the runway last night, after disembarking Air Force One, by Jennifer Tolhurst, Lord-Lieutenant of Essex, and Jane Hartley, US Ambassador to the United Kingdom.
Talks with the PM come after Mr Biden’s controversial decision to send controversial cluster bombs to Ukraine to assist the fightback against Russia.
The munitions have been banned in more than 100 countries as unexploded “bomblets” can remain on the ground and detonate years later on civilians.
Previously, the White House had held off sending them to Kyiv over fears of harming the innocent.
