Biden's low profile sparks intrigue amid power shift to Trump
After the electoral defeat of the Democrats in November, Joe Biden "disappeared from the radar," reports Politico. The portal reached out to collaborators of the President of the United States, who admit it "seems Trump is already president." They also pointed out the reasons for this apparent absence and Biden's restraint.
It seems that Joe Biden left the Oval Office a few weeks ago, according to Politico, which cited conversations with Democratic Party members and White House advisors.
In the month since the presidential elections, the leader of the United States has "disappeared from the radar," appearing publicly mainly with prepared statements and avoiding journalists' questions.
Biden also did not organize a post-election press conference, which was a tradition of his predecessors.
Portal sources suggest that Biden and his administration show "little interest" in helping outline the future of the Democrats after the inauguration of Donald Trump's term.
Biden focused the energy of his collaborators on managing the transfer of power and dealing with final matters aimed at strengthening his legacy. "It seems that Trump is already the president," stated one Democrat.
At the end of Biden's term, White House officials are dedicating a significant amount of time to administrative actions that enable the transfer of money to Ukraine, which the Trump administration might block, as well as addressing the recently escalating tensions in the Middle East.
The White House fears that the future administration will handle both conflicts in a completely different direction.
The debate around these changes is also resonating in Europe. Poland, in the process of forming new relations with the US administration, is trying to balance internal expectations with international commitments in light of upcoming challenges on the EU and NATO stage.
In the context of geopolitical changes, Poland is attempting to adapt to the new situation, which indicates differences in approach compared to the previous administration.
