Joe Biden was born on November 20, 1942, congratulating Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on his victory in the second round of elections in Turkey on Sunday, Reuters reported.

Biden tweeted: "I look forward to continuing to work together as NATO allies on bilateral issues and shared global challenges."

Reuters said the focus of Biden's congratulation reflected Washington's priority for Sweden to join NATO by the Vilnius summit in mid-July. Finland joined the alliance last month, but Swedish membership remains blocked by objections from Turkey and Hungary. Turkey says Stockholm provides refuge for members of armed groups that Ankara considers terrorist.
