Obama congratulates Biden: "This is your time."
Former US President Barack Obama congratulated President-elect Joe Biden on his inauguration as President of the United States, to succeed outgoing President Donald Trump.
In a tweet on Twitter, Obama posted a photo of Biden, and attached it to the phrase: “Congratulations, my friend President Joe Biden! This is your time. ”
The inauguration ceremony of Joe Biden, the 46th President of the United States, will be held in Washington, DC today.
Biden's inauguration ceremony differs from his predecessors due to the exceptional measures that were taken against the backdrop of the Coronavirus pandemic and the escalating tensions in light of the storming of the Capitol on January 6 by crowds of supporters of President Donald Trump.
