During a one-on-one meeting with Peru’s President Dina Boluarte, President Joe Biden thanked her for the country’s efforts to counter drug trafficking and noted the $65 million the U.S. is giving Peru over the next five years intended to assist in that effort, including nine Blackhawk helicopters.

Biden is on a six-day visit to Latin America for the final major international summits of his presidency, following up APEC with a gathering in Brazil of leaders from the Group of 20 top economies.

He’s likely to face questions from world leaders about the incoming administration as they turn their attention to what Trump’s return to the White House will mean for them.
