Speaking on the tarmac of London Heathrow airport to reporters after his visit, Biden said the queen “was very gracious.”

He told reporters that Queen Elizabeth II reminded him of his mother shortly after the two met at Windsor Castle on Sunday.

Biden said Queen Elizabeth II wanted to know more about Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping.

Biden is scheduled to meet with Putin in a bilateral summit in Switzerland after attending a NATO summit in Brussels.
