White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the precautionary landing was conducted 'out of an abundance of caution." She confirmed that the President and First Lady safely transferred to a backup helicopter, which then continued to Stansted, where they boarded Air Force One for their return flight to the United States.
