Biden's overseas trip under scrutiny amidst debt limit negotiations and Hiroshima visit.
TL;DR Summary
President Joe Biden will attend the G-7 summit in Japan but is "reevaluating" the rest of his trip, which includes visits to Papua New Guinea and Australia, amid ongoing debt ceiling negotiations with congressional Republicans. The stops in Australia and Papua New Guinea were meant to affirm the U.S. commitment to the Pacific as China's influence in the region rises. The White House has not yet announced any cancellations or modifications to the trip.
