US First Lady Jill Biden is likely to visit Tokyo and participate in the Olympic opening ceremony on July 23, but is unlikely to be accompanied by President Joe Biden, Japan’s Yomiuri Shimbun reported Sunday.
According to the newspaper, Japanese and American authorities are currently preparing for Jill Biden’s visit to Tokyo. The Yomiuri Shimbun reported that the visit program may include a meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga, without mentioning the source of this information.
