President Joe Biden and President-elect Donald Trump will meet at 11 a.m. at the White House on Nov. 13 to discuss plans for the presidential transition, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a Nov. 9 statement.

The press secretary’s announcement provided the first specifics of the meeting, which earlier reporting indicates will focus on the transfer of power between presidential administrations. Jean-Pierre said additional details would be forthcoming. Biden first extended the invitation during a Nov. 6 phone call in which he congratulated Trump on his election victory.
