Joe Biden has officially announced his re-nomination for the 2024 US presidential election.
Confirmation of his availability for a second term came in a video, which scrolls images of the attack on Congress on January 6, 2021 and of the protests at the Supreme Court in defense of the right to abortion.
“When I ran for president 4 years ago I said we were fighting for the spirit of America. It still is,” Biden says in the video. Adding: «We have to finish the job. And the question we find ourselves facing - he continues - is whether we will have more freedom or less freedom in the coming years. More rights or less rights. Now is not the time to be complacent. That's why I'm running for re-election."
The news was met with controversy by the Republican party, according to which the US president is not up to the role, as he is "disconnected from reality".
