After completing his four-year term, US President Joe Biden will deliver his final address to the nation on January 15 at 8pm (ET) from the Oval Office. The development came as President-elect Donald Trump is set to sworn in as head of the state during the inauguration ceremony at the Capitol on January 20, The Washington Post reported. A day earlier, Biden said he didn't think that dropping out of the presidential race over the summer helped deliver the election to Trump. “I think I would have beaten Trump , and I think that Kamala could have — would have beaten Trump,” he said. “I thought it was important to unify the party. Even though I thought I could win again, I thought it was better to unify the party.” The outgoing president was of the view that he didn’t want to create division within his party to lose the election. “That’s why I stepped aside. But I was confident she could win,” he added. Republican candidate Trump was elected the 47th president of the US, making an extraordinary comeback four years after he was voted out of the White House. Trump claimed victory in the 2024 US presidential election, declaring an "unprecedented and powerful mandate" while addressing supporters in Florida. “I want to thank the American people for the extraordinary honour of being elected your 47th president and your 45th president,” Trump said who refused to accept defeat four years ago, sparking a violent insurrection at the US Capitol and later being convicted of felony charges. President-elect Trump will be sworn in at the presidential inauguration ceremony — which will be held on January 20, 2025, at the US Capitol building in Washington DC. Planned by the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies, the inauguration begins with a procession to the Capitol. The vice president recites his oath of office and is sworn in first. Later, the president recites his oath of office and is sworn in. Subsequently, the president gives an inaugural address — which usually outlines a president's vision and goals for his term. After the speech, the previous president makes an honourary departure from the Capitol, which is followed by a signing ceremony, where the new president signs the first official actions. The final traditional event of the inauguration is the pass-in review, when the president and vice president review military troops before leading a procession from the Capitol to the White House. While Trump did not attend President Biden’s inauguration in 2021, Biden is expected to be there for Trump’s swearing-in.
