Press Secretary of the US President Jen Psaki assessed the likelihood of a conversation between Joe Biden and his predecessor, Donald Trump. RIA Novosti reports her words.
In particular, Psaki recalled the letter that Trump left to Biden. “I would not take this as an indication that there will be a conversation with Trump,” she said.
Earlier, Biden said that the previous head of the White House left him a “generous” letter. However, the President chose not to disclose the contents of the message, as he said it was personal.
Biden was inaugurated on January 20, he became the 46th President of the United States. The ceremony was attended by outgoing Vice President Mike Pence. Trump ignored the ceremony, breaking a 150-year tradition, and left Washington a few hours before the celebrations. From the capital, he went to his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida. Before that, he said goodbye to his supporters and promised to return “in one form or another”.
