WASHINGTON (AP) — Vice President Kamala Harris has left Washington for Indonesia, where she’ll attend the Association of Southeast Asian Nations summit. President Joe Biden decided to skip the event.

The summit is not expected to resolve longstanding issues such as the military coup in Myanmar or territorial disputes in the South China Sea.
