Joe Biden says time to pass torch to ‘new generation’
Washington | President Joe Biden framed his decision to drop out of the 2024 race as a bid to unify the nation under a new generation of leaders in his first public address since he ended his re-election campaign against Republican Donald Trump.
“I have decided the best way forward is to pass the torch to a new generation. That is the best way to unite our nation,” Mr Biden, 81, said on Wednesday (Thursday AEST) in an Oval Office address.
