Afghanistan and Libya are expected to feature prominently when US President Barack Obama and David Cameron meet for talks at Downing Street later.

As the focus of his state visit shifts to politics, Mr Obama will also address MPs and peers in Westminster Hall.

He and the PM are also due to drop in on a barbecue hosted by their wives for families of military personnel involved in joint UK-US missions overseas.

On Tuesday, Mr Obama praised the solidarity the UK had shown the US.

He was speaking at a banquet, in honour of his three-day visit, hosted by the Queen at Buckingham Palace.
