The French and U.S. presidents are to discuss long-term aid to Ukraine, the Elysée said in a statement.
“Our close coordination on international crises will serve to prepare the next international events, including June’s G7 summit in Bari and the NATO summit in Washington in July,” the statement read.
Biden and Macron are also expected to discuss economic, space and nuclear topics as well as climate change.
The two leaders are said to enjoy a warm and friendly relationship, despite policy disagreements. The French president, for example, has publicly criticized America’s Inflation Reduction Act for impacting investment in Europe.
The visit comes ahead of next weekend’s European election, which is expected to produce big gains for the French far right.
