Washington. US President Joe Biden will attend Donald Trump's swearing-in ceremony next month. Trump will take oath as President on January 20. Although the White House had said that Biden would attend the swearing-in ceremony, Biden has confirmed it for the first time.
Biden said in an interview on Thursday, "Of course I am involved in the transfer of power on January 20." Taking a dig at Trump, Biden said that the only president who did not attend the swearing-in ceremony of his successor is the same person who is about to be sworn in.
In 2021, the situation became like anarchy
It is worth noting that when Biden took oath as President in 2021, Trump did not attend the swearing-in ceremony. Trump never accepted his defeat to Biden in the presidential election of November 3, 2020. He claims that there was fraud in this election. Due to this, the transfer of power in 2021 could not happen smoothly. Trump supporters protested. Situations like anarchy had arisen.
India is the highest tariff economy in the world: US Ambassador

In response, he had reiterated the warning of imposing similar high tariffs on Indian products. US Ambassador to India Garcetti said this at a program of the US-India Business Council. He said that as the two countries are coming closer, they are becoming more clear with each other.
