In pictures: Biden’s second foreign trip as President

US President Joe Biden had an audience with Pope Francis on Friday, October 29, as he began his second trip abroad as President.

It was the fourth meeting between Francis and Biden, a devout, lifelong Catholic who often wears his late son’s rosary on his wrist. It was their first meeting since Biden became President. The two were expected to discuss climate change, migration and income inequality, among other issues, according to White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan.

Over the weekend, Biden will attend his first G20 summit in Rome and meet with other world leaders.

Then he heads to Scotland for COP26, a United Nations climate summit where he is set to deliver a major address. Biden will also meet with leaders on the margin of that summit to discuss a range of issues.
