President Joe Biden's upcoming visit to the United Kingdom provides an opportunity to repair any tensions between the two nations, particularly after his absence from King Charles III's coronation last spring. While Biden's Irish ancestry and comments about Northern Ireland have raised concerns among Brexit supporters, his efforts to strengthen the military partnership and address Russia's aggression have helped ease tensions.
