The meeting will take place a week after the publication of the results of the presidential elections from the decisive states.
American President Joe Biden will receive President-elect Donald Trump at the White House next week at 11:00 a.m. local time (17:00 CET).
The American president congratulated the successful candidate by phone this week on Wednesday, when he invited him to a conversation about the smooth transfer of power. Kamala Harris also acknowledged the defeat in the election on Wednesday, who also congratulated Trump in a phone call.
According to the AP agency, Trump has so far received 301 electoral votes, his Democratic opponent Kamala Harris has 226. 270 votes in the Electoral College were needed to win. The only state where the results are still awaited is Nevada, where Trump leads.
The Americans thus elected Donald Trump as the 47th president of the United States, and he should return to the White House after four years.
In 2020, he lost the presidential election to current President Joe Biden and refused to accept defeat – he repeatedly questioned the results of the election and provoked a violent attack on the Capitol on January 6, 2021. Trump did not meet with Biden after the election and did not even attend his inauguration.
