Wednesday, 14 June 2023



WASHINGTON, June 13 (Reuters): US President Joe Biden postponed a meeting with the head of NATO and skipped his other public events on Monday to undergo his second root canal procedure in as many days, the White House said.
"The president is doing just fine and he will be certainly working in the residence this afternoon," press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said following the treatment at the White House.
Biden reported tooth pain on Sunday, prompting an X-ray examination and root canal treatment by a team from Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, according to a letter from his physician that was distributed to the press.
