WASHINGTON: US President Joe Biden has yet to decide on whether he will attend the Tokyo Olympics, scheduled to start in about 12 weeks, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki suggested on Wednesday.

“I don’t have any updates or predictions on whether or not he’ll travel” to attend the Tokyo Games, Psaki told a press briefing.

Japanese Prime Minister Yohihide Suga has indicated his intention to invite Biden to attend the event.

“I think the president and his team assess any invitation as it comes in, but 12 weeks is some period of time,” Psaki said.
