G7 summit: Biden says America is back at the table

US President Joe Biden has declared that “America is back at the table” following the G7 summit of world leaders in the UK.

At a press conference on Sunday, Mr Biden said the summit had been “extraordinarily collaborative”.

G7 leaders agreed on action to tackle China’s human rights record and climate change after three days of talks.

Mr Biden said the organisation was in a “contest with autocracies” and welcomed its approach on China and Russia.

He also sought to distance himself from his predecessor – Donald Trump – who he said believed climate change was “not a problem”.

“We had a president, the last [one] who basically said it’s not a problem, global warming,” Mr Biden said. “It is the existential problem facing humanity and it’s being treated that way.”
