New York: British Prime Minister David Cameron has arrived in the United States for his three day official visit, media reported on Tuesday.
According to reports Obama and Cameron will attend a match-up in Dayton, Ohio, between Mississippi Valley State University and Western Kentucky University on Tuesday night, a gesture of goodwill during Cameron’s official visit to the US and a way for an incumbent president to reach sports fans in an election year.
The White House said the trip to the tournament game was intended to showcase the special relationship between the two allies during Cameron’s visit. Obama and Cameron will discuss the upcoming NATO and G-8 summits on Wednesday, followed by a state dinner at the White House.
Republicans panned the trip, saying many Americans would prefer Obama to focus on more pressing issues.
It also lets Obama lavish praise and attention on Cameron at a time of weighty foreign policy challenges in Afghanistan, Iran and Syria.
Britain has been an important US ally in Afghanistan and the bombing campaign in Libya that led to the removal of Muammar Gadaffi.
