President Joe Biden told reporters on Monday he would meet “today” with the parents of American journalist Austin Tice, who was abducted in Syria 10 years ago.
Austin Tice was covering the Syrian civil war when he vanished en route to Lebanon in 2012. Five weeks later, a video emerged showing him blindfolded and held by armed men. The meeting with his parents, Marc and Debra Tice, is expected to take place at the White House.
