U.S. President-elect Joe Biden stated on Tuesday that his presidential term would not be a "third term" of former President Barack Obama, pointing out that he will not pursue criminal investigations into President Donald Trump once he takes office.
In a wide-ranging interview with NBC News on Tuesday, Biden said: "This is not a third Obama term because ... we face a totally different world than we faced in the Obama/Biden administration."
"President Trump has changed the landscape. It's become America first, it's been America alone," he added.
He stressed "America's back."
"We're at the head of the table once again. I've spoken with over 20 world leaders and they all are literally, they were pleased and somewhat excited. America's going to reassert its role in the world and be a coalition builder," Biden noted.
