Biden begins private meetings with world leaders at Delaware home ahead of secretive Quad meeting

White House media coverage is being kept to a minimum as Biden hosts the world leaders at his former high school for a dinner and small event

President Biden is meeting privately with the three other world leaders that make up the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue at his Delaware estate.

The White House released statements acknowledging the arrival of Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida already, and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi was spotted arriving at the home on Saturday.

The meetings are taking place in the president's hometown of Wilmington — an excessively private affair that has sparked outrage from the White House Correspondents' Association.

The foreign leaders are invited to a low-profile dinner on Saturday night hosted at Archmere Academy, the president's former school.

"These are personal relationships that mean a lot to him. And he believes personal relationships are important to foreign policy," White House national security spokesman John Kirby previously told the press.

The meeting is expected to be one of Biden's final summits with foreign leaders after he dropped out of the presidential election earlier this year.
