First lady Jill Biden will travel to Japan for the opening ceremony of the pandemic-delayed Tokyo Olympics on July 23, the White House said Tuesday. The announcement comes about a week after organizers and the IOC banned all spectators from watching events in the Tokyo area, with venues in other parts of Japan following suit, due to a state of emergency over the COVID-19 pandemic. Fans coming from abroad have been banned for months. This will be Biden’s second time leading an Olympic delegation, according to NBC News. She and husband Joe Biden led the delegation to the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, when Biden was vice president.
