Biden inches (even) closer to reelection bid

Update : 03 Mar 2023, 07:59

US President Joe Biden inched closer than ever Thursday to announcing he'll seek a second term in 2024, but stopped short of setting a launch date for his widely-expected reelection campaign.

Asked during a brief exchange with reporters when he would announce he is running again, Biden teased with a smile: "When I announce it."

The president was speaking from the hallways of Congress, where he was meeting with senators from his Democratic Party.

The 80-year-old leader and his entourage have made it clear that, barring any major surprises, the question is no longer whether he will run again, but when he will announce his candidacy.
