US President Joe Biden and Boris Johnson have met for their bilateral meeting in Carbis Bay this afternoon.
As they watched the waves crash on the beach Joe Biden revealed that he thinks Cornwall is "gorgeous" and he doesn't want to go home.
The meeting had to be relocated from St Michael's Mount to the Carbis Bay Hotel due to the Cornish mizzle.
It's understood the two world leader's are set to agree on an Atlantic Charter to underpin shared commitments on pressing international issues.
They are also due to discuss a range of issues including climate change, Brexit and the coronavirus pandemic.
The two leaders were joined by their wives, Carrie Johnson and Jill Biden.
Before the meeting took place Boris Johnson spoke to reporters and said he is unlikely to disagree with Joe Biden on much this weekend.
Joe Biden also joked the pair had something in common - that they both "married above their station."
The prime minister responded saying: "I'm not going to disagree with the president there - or indeed on anything else, I think it is highly likely."
It's reported there will be no press conference following the meeting.
