(Patria) - President Joe Biden will attend the inauguration of the next US president in January regardless of who wins Tuesday's election, White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre said, promising a peaceful transfer of power, Reuters reported.
“This president believes in the peaceful transfer of power and you will see this president do that,” Jean-Pierre said. “It’s not about him. It’s about the American people. That’s what the American people need to see regardless of who wins.”
“He will certainly participate in that,” she said, noting that outgoing presidents have regularly attended the inaugurations of their successors.
She did not mention former Republican President Donald Trump's decision not to attend Biden's inauguration in January 2021.
Trump and his wife Melania left the White House before Biden's inauguration, skipping the traditional farewell to the next residents of the presidential residence and the inauguration itself.
Trump's Vice President Mike Pence and his wife Karen attended the ceremony.
