In a speech delivered in Milwaukee on Tuesday, US President Joe Biden announced his intention to visit Hawaii soon while ensuring that his presence would not hinder the ongoing recovery efforts from the devastating wildfires.

 "I don't want to get in the way... I want to go make sure we got everything they need. Want to be sure we don't disrupt the ongoing recovery efforts," Biden said

Biden also highlighted his conversation with Hawaiian Governor Josh Green regarding federal support amid the deadly wildfires.

Following a call with Deanne Criswell, the Administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), who provided updates on the wildfires, Biden assured Governor Green of the continuous availability of federal assistance.

The fires have tragically claimed at least 99 lives and prompted Biden to declare a major disaster in Hawaii last week. This declaration has opened the door to increased federal resources to aid the state's response to the wildfires.
