The Latest: Obama meets with Spain's acting prime minister

President Barack Obama has arrived for a meeting with Spain's acting prime minister, Mariano Rajoy (mah-ree-AH'-noh rah-HOY').

Both meetings were originally scheduled for Monday, but Obama rearranged his schedule and cut a day out of his first presidential visit to Spain because of a series of deadly shootings in the U.S.

After a brief welcome ceremony, Obama and the king greeted each other's delegations under gold and crystal chandeliers and the soaring archways of a palace reception room.

Obama cut a two-day visit to one day to return to Washington after the police shootings of black men in Louisiana and Minnesota and a sniper attack on five police officers in Dallas.
