Biden confirms Trump meeting to ensure peaceful transition

U.S. President Joe Biden will host Donald Trump at the White House on Wednesday, with Trump set to assume office in January, Biden’s spokesperson, Karine Jean-Pierre, announced on Saturday, according to AFP as reported by Agerpres.

On Thursday, Joe Biden pledged to ensure a “peaceful and orderly” transfer of power to the Republican, who won a decisive victory over Democrat Kamala Harris in Tuesday’s election.

The two leaders are preparing for the incoming Trump administration, where key figures such as entrepreneur Elon Musk and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. may take on prominent roles.

While this meeting had been previously announced, the exact date had not been specified until now.

Donald Trump, who has yet to concede his 2020 defeat and boycotted Joe Biden’s inauguration, stated on Thursday that he is “looking forward to this meeting” at the White House, according to his team.

The real estate magnate—who was targeted in two assassination attempts during his campaign and has been indicted and convicted in both criminal and civil cases—has 74 days to assemble his government team.

On Thursday, the Republican made his first major appointment: Susie Wiles, his campaign coordinator, will serve as his chief of staff, a highly strategic role that has never before been held by a woman.

Donald Trump, aged 78, was elected President of the United States following the presidential election held on November 5.
