Pidió, asimismo, seguir el “camino de la unidad” para superar las múltiples crisis que enfrenta el país, porque sin ella “solo hay amargura y furia”. Llamó a los estadounidenses a superar divisiones, declarando que “sin unidad, no hay paz.”
El presidente pidió este miércoles al país que rechace “la cultura en al que los hechos mismos son manipulados, e incluso fabricados” y pidió un inicio “fresco”, en el que la política no tiene que ser un “fuego furioso”.
Joe Biden se convirtió este miércoles en el presidente número 46 de la historia de Estados Unidos, al jurar el cargo en la ceremonia oficial de investidura ante las escalinatas del Capitolio y en medio de grandes medidas de seguridad.
A las 11.50 am ET, Biden comenzó el juramento con el que se compromete a “preservar, proteger y defender la Constitución de Estados Unidos”.
Es la peor pesadilla de un usuario de Twitter: Despertar y ver que ya no tiene seguidores
La investidura se celebra con un público reducido debido a los protocolos para evitar los contagios por covid-19 y un dispositivo de seguridad sin precedentes en la historia del país, con hasta 25.000 militares desplegados en Washington.
Rompiendo con la tradición, Trump no asistió al acto de investidura de su sucesor y puso rumbo a su mansión privada en Palm Beach (Florida), estado donde llegó poco antes del inicio de la ceremonia.
El vicepresidente saliente, Mike Pence, sí asistió al acto, al que también acudieron la mayoría de los legisladores estadounidenses y anteriores mandatarios, como George W. Bush (2001-2009) y Bill Clinton (1993-2001), junto a sus respectivas esposas, Laura Bush y Hillary Clinton.
