Biden met with the Japanese Emperor in Tokyo on Monday.
President Joe Biden met with Japanese Emperor Naruhito at the Imperial Palace on Monday in Tokyo, but it’s what happened to Biden before the meeting has people talking.
Biden can be seen exiting the car and walking six steps and by the time he met with the emperor he was totally out of breath – as you can see his mask sucking and blowing out.
See the footage below via Reuters.
This is Biden’s first visit to Japan since the start of his tenure, and during the 30-minute meeting, Biden told the emperor that the two countries have a strong bond and that Japan is its most important partner in the Pacific.
The emperor told Biden that he “hoped that the friendship and goodwill between Japan and the United States would advance even more with the visit.”
Biden previously met the emperor in December 2013, when he was serving as vice President under U.S. President Barack Obama.
The White House said that the visit was meant to “offer greetings on behalf of the American people, highlighting the strength of the U.S.-Japan relationship anchored by deep people-to-people ties.”
