Boris Johnson and Joe Biden discuss Brexit and Northern Ireland at G7 summit – BBC News

Boris Johnson has held his first face to face meeting with President Biden ahead the G7 summit in Cornwall.

They committed to working together on a number of global challenges.

The Prime Minister described their meeting this afternoon as a “breath of fresh air”. Joe Biden said they’d reaffirmed the special relationship.

The two leaders also discussed post-Brexit trade problems in Northern Ireland, after Mr Biden warned that the UK’s dispute with the EU over border controls must not put the peace process at risk.
