Office come the house breaks down barriers and highlights sacrifices made by american women but donald trump remains defiant the president showing no sign of conceiving a look at what that means for the transition of power. And in other news azerbaijans president says his military has taken the 2nd largest city in the disputed region of. Transport so kerry is testing its ability to host a safe olympics next year the city has staged its 1st International Competition at the games venue since the olympics had to be postponed due to coronavirus. In the past our former u. S. President george w. Bush has congratulated joe biden on his win calling him a good man and hes told americans to have faith that this weeks election was fair with a clear outcome the former president is now the highest profile republican to acknowledge biden as the elections. When even the current republican president of the trump has refused to concede the statement from president bush comes as president elect biden vowed to heal americas deep political divide this was the biden family this morning attending a Church Service in their home state of delaware after a night of celebrations bidens pledge to make the coronavirus pandemic and its economic fallout his priority and is expected to name a task force on monday to help in the transition. Meanwhile President Donald Trump left the white house for another visit to a golf course in virginia he was met with several small groups of protesters along the way many of them carrying signs in support of joe biden trump is yet to speak publicly but has threatened legal action in an attempt to overturn the election his the same to take us through developments will be with him in Atlanta Georgia shortly also in delaware as we say joe bidens home state starting there with alan fischer in washington d. C. And alan take us through this statement from former president george w. Bush. Well its an interesting one isnt it there are those who suggest that the george w. Bush might speak out against donald trump before the election he didnt do that the 2 men dont get on donald trump was the only president past or present not invited to george w. Bushs fathers funeral or indeed his mothers funeral which happened during Donald Trumps time in the white house the statement says that he says George Joe Biden is a good man and has been one the opportunity to lead and unify the country said he would pray for success just like he did for bill clinton and barack obama and also for dont trump himself and he insisted that no matter how you voted your vote youre right hes the highest profile republican yet to acknowledge joe biden is the president elect larry hogan who is the governor of maryland who intends we think to run for the president ial nomination in 2024 has also done that but there are those who insist that the selection still has a long way to go in the reporting in washington that says that jerry man a number of people who will approach donald trump and ask him to consider in the next couple of days to step aside but if you look at Donald Trumps twitter feed before he hit the golf course there seems to be no indication that hes even thinking about that. People who are appearing on fox news over the last few hours suggesting that the validation of the votes. Still has a long way to go that there are growing for legal action Newt Gingrich a supporter of donald trump his wife is the ambassador to vatican city well he insisted that donald trump should continue to go war on the head of newsmax another organization likes very much he said that there is no intention as far as donald trump is concerned of conceding this election so what can donald trump do well he said in the statement on saturday just after the Media Networks announced that joe biden was going to be the president elect that he was going to take all possible legal action to make sure that the results were not satisfied until every single legal vote has counted he says that there is evidence that there has been some sort of voter fraud or people getting votes that should have had them now theres been a number of republicans on t. V. In the last couple of hours including mitt romney saying theyre not seeing any evidence that is the problem the republicans are talking about voter fraud but not producing evidence so if donald trump wants to take this to the courts hes got to produce evidence and pass a very high bar before he even begin to challenge the election of joe biden as the next president of the United States and fischer at 1600 pennsylvania avenue in washington d. C. The white house thank you allan now to wilmington delaware and here is jim. We last saw you outside the church where joe biden and family had been to church this morning so i guess the work starts now. Indeed he did. A visit through the church in his local city true maybe reflect maybe paid thanks to. Winning those elections for them going to pay respects to his late son who played a big role in convincing came true contest is elections and as you say the work starts now in the past couple hours the Deputy Campaign chief. Well former campaign a former campaign of joe biden announced on one of the News Networks here in the United States who the biden Transitional Team will be naming to lead the covert task force interesting lead to have true names there are vivek murthy who is the former. Lead surgeon of the United States essentially a top doctor who was appointed by former president barack obama and then was relieved of his duties shortly off to Donald Trump Took Office together with dr David Kessler who is a former f. D. A. Commissioner the f. D. A. Being the Government Authority which regulates drugs and medicine here in the United States so those through because theyre not government officials now are able to engage with the Transitional Team in coming up with a blueprint is through how ministration will tackle this virus from a scientific perspective particular considering that the rhetoric and campaign pledges of the Biden Campaign was to take a totally different approach to tackling gets one that looks at the science ones that looks at things like for example enforcing face moss and other regulations something that donald trump refused should do so thats the primary objective that they will be looking to work on they are looking at other things in terms of policy rollbacks like gauging with the World Health Organization and. Becoming a member once again off to trumpet withdrawing them as well as obviously resigning up through the climate treaty but right now the biggest news thats come out of the Transitional Team is the point of those 2 figures to cochair the covert task force ok great stuff an update from jamal shale and wilmington delaware finally we are off to land in georgia here is going to natashas there because one is how sure youve got counting still going on but also another vote to come there in a couple of months which could have huge ramifications on how the countrys government. Absolutely kemal president elect joe biden predicted that he would win the state of georgia even as the votes continue to be counted counted and it appears that he may very well prevail right now he is leading trump by about 10200. 00 votes so its not significant obviously in terms of the president ial election but it is a Significant Development with regard to the morale and the mood about whats possible for the Democratic Party this is a state that has not given its 16 Electoral College votes to a democratic president ial candidate in 28 years and a state that trump won by 5 percent you know we were in freedom park in atlanta which was a huge source of support for biden in this campaign and the mood of course on saturday was very lively very happy but its important to note that 70 percent of white georgians threw their support behind President Trump they gathered at a rally in front of the capitol here in atlanta on saturday chanting the gates of hell will not prevail and claiming that the election was stolen from trump is due to a fraud despite any evidence of that fact but it does remind one that georgia remains divided and as does the country and that there is still a lot of eggs in the rancor georgians will be heading to the polls on january 5th 2 of their senate seats now held by republicans are going to move to runoffs so now in the intervening weeks democratic progressive groups are going to be trying to register 30 to 40000 new voters in the hopes they can flip those senate seats and perhaps gain complete control of the government. In Atlanta Georgia thank you for that. And lets look at. The corona virus which of course joe biden is now making a priority weve heard from the wealth would im sorry the World Health Organization the head of the w. H. O. His congratulate joe biden dr ted rossi said my w. H. O. Colleagues and i look forward to working with you in chains crises like kovan 1000 showed the importance of Global Solidarity in protecting lives and livelihoods together big emphasis on that work there are very pleased to welcome any sparrow to the news as shes in geneva Critical Care pediatrician a professor of Population Health science and policy at mount sinai hospital in new york any thank you for your time today its actually its actually kind of extraordinary i just stopped and thought for a moment that donald trump actually cut ties between the u. S. And the w. H. O. During a time of pandemic i know its its old news but the fact that that happened and that joe biden has to kind of stitch together is quite something it is not its really just extraordinary that i am not a parent and a pandemic kind of guy kind of Global Health records its so critical and right now you know i know when hes on how important you are at least you got great jerry and how important it is directly counter china. To a time when it gets to me margaret dont get us if we cant wait to china and you know its just an extraordinary. To try to hold the government here hostage. To try or youre prepared to come and you get this. Great great to. Korea do you great part sorry finish your thought. Barden you will immediately remember a stargate joeys mentec and hes a confirmed monkey got to sit back and he doesnt need to take greater care that turns the trumps mishandling of the pandemic and and its it is absolutely critical in your you know its not counting the votes that we can see that growth is count its going up and up or not with your 100000 yesterday to get a conservative 100 and our you know you have a terrorist is not just leading a global right but it means being and not attacking lava given his. Funding gaffe will the leadership get the right to these next 2 months a critical obviously because you have still got a government in power in the United States but youve got and we heard our correspondent talking about those appointments already as far as joe bidens Transition Team his Coronavirus Task force how much can they really achieve in these 2 months to think. Well happy but they really need we dont need to see right now is what i mean we have some white house that biden will be in the white house but what we have seen is the limitations of this strategy which rests on. Betty all approach even using a testing strategy or hospital based strategy piece which is inadequate directly because the bar is real time and thats what you need to get to a silent bar as grades so this mass of transmission that we really get understand i mean we really think both ends of pandemic get a playbook at jack reed and it just doesnt work so you know creating the kind of earth that yes we can go forward and we will and the scalp and i see i see biden as someone who would also embrace what to be pretty obvious is that most of the testing to begin the climb because many get together we have to be up to you know that stuck with everyone in our own homes and that bigger of that kind of autonomy and control of our rights that we can actually. Had to test every day or every other day and i dont believe theres an american and i think its only way to america where you can act like you can time or and cite it does that autonomy back and back it gives us a safety back to base act when maggie. And several and get married and celebrate and play and go to school and all these things that have had to teens and you know end of pocket and that youre at these very same kind that trades and you have to will no shutdowns in search of this thing and even masks you know there are black ones and we want some good x. Products the corona buys and that we keep up with it and sag radical that is not really because. Thats what it was trying to do to try to get the public back into public sound simple in the end doesnt any of us got some other news to move on to but thank you so much for your time we really appreciate it and inspire in geneva. So were going to look at the United States on the International Stage shortly and how that might change under a new president also why World Leaders some of them at least are choosing not to congratulate the u. S. President elect. And other news of the day is what will it be as the socialist party sweeps back into power as the new president is sworn in. Will even have some sport as well christiane a rinaldo on target for you venter says they aim to close the gap on the Italian League its. So joe bidens win could also alter relations with nato secretary general yen stoltenberg is how biden is a strong supporter of the transatlantic relationship which became strained under the trumpet ministration back in 27. 00 change from called nato obsolete he went on to accuse members of not paying their fair share for u. S. Protection then he caused further friction with berlin announcing it was reducing u. S. Troop numbers in germany because of its quote delinquent contribution to nato but it is a relationship european leaders seem eager to repair in her congratulatory message to joe biden you Commission President today and said as the world continues to change and new challenges and opportunities appear our new partnership will be of particular importance. As in paris for us and as many e. U. Leaders will see the election of joe biden as a reset in u. S. Relations. I think the several e. U. Leaders will be now looking to joe biden to restart a more multilateral approach to Foreign Policy after years of Donald Trumps america 1st policy and his unilateral approach we saw trump for example pulling the us out of the paris climate deal out of the iran deal the j c p a way both dossiers that a very close to the hearts of many leaders had worked very hard to achieve them so i think the e. U. Leaders will be certainly celebrating thats what we heard from many of them the french president emanuel mackerel saying congratulations to biden the german chancellor talking about the irreplaceable relationship that there is between germany and the United States in the foreign minister of germany perhaps in a way summing it up because he said that he is looking forward to a reach set a new deal if you like between the u. S. And germany but it almost could be seen as a new deal between the u. S. And the e. U. And what hes talking about is a new type of transatlantic relationship wiping away if you like some of the past 4 years and having a relationship in which the u. S. Acts more predictably is a more reliable partner has to be said though of course not all your leaders would feel the same because we have some leaders leaders of poland for example hungary venia who had openly supported donald trump off we go to new york now the United Nations and our diplomatic editor james james want to talk about iran in a moment but just to follow up on what natasha was talking about there do you think there was damage done in the last 4 years or do you think these european leaders will really be able to separate the United States from the United States under donald trump. Well i think that certainly they are breathing a very big sigh of relief most european leaders and theyre hoping that what theyve seen so far from that speech in wilmington it wasnt about Foreign Affairs but it was the speech of a very traditional president theyre hoping that the u. S. Is going to return to that very traditional u. S. Role which means taking part in an International Institutions taking part with its allies in its alliances the most important being nato but i have to say there are 2 things to say on the other side of the tally one is that president elect biden faces an amazing set of challenges taking over at the time of code 19 globally over a 1000000 people have been killed got the worst recession the centrally got to blow growing clark at time of crisis so hes got a lot on his plate the other thing is i think that other countries around the world and particularly the u. S. As our allies wont forget the trump years they know how close this election was they know that technically President Trump could run again in 4 years time a
