ABC anchor David Muir will be interviewing President Biden on Thursday on the 80th anniversary of the D-Day invasion.

Muir will be sitting down with Biden for a rare interview Thursday in Normandy, France, ABC announced in a press release. The full interview with the president will air on ABC’s “World News Tonight,” which is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. EDT.

Biden is traveling to Normandy to mark the D-Day anniversary on Thursday, where he will also meet with veterans who served during the invasion 80 years ago.

Biden has upped his media interviews in recent weeks and months as he gears up for the campaign season. He sat down for an interview with CNN’s Erin Burnett in May and recently joined radio host Howard Stern for a live interview in April.
