Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden issued an address to the nation following preliminary data on their victory.

“I sought this post to heal the soul of America, to restore the core of this country - its middle class - and to make America respected again in the world,” Biden said.

According to the Democrat, he plans to focus his efforts on combating COVID-19, increasing the welfare of citizens, as well as protecting the climate and countering racism.

In addition, Biden pledged “to be a president who does not divide society, but unites it.” According to him, he understands the disappointment of those who voted for Republican Donald Trump, but now he should “give each other a chance”. "It's time to put aside harsh rhetoric, turn the tide, see each other again, listen to each other," Biden said.
