Since leaving the competition in the first place in the public eye in February and appointing Vice President Kamala Harris to remove him, the leader has been out of the public gaze for weeks. His surprise appearance on Thursday marked his first interview with reporters since taking office in 2021.
The chairman thanked his staff, carrier companies, and work for putting an end to the strike immediately, saying,” I was determined to avoid a crisis at this point because it’s critical.”
” We were told time and again that laws we were pursuing, we put forth, may make things worse”, he continued. ” We proved them wrong”.
Biden touted Friday’s Bureau of Labor Statistics employment report that found the business added 254, 000 , jobs , in September and the , unemployment , rate fell to 4.1 %.
The leader declared,” The plain fact is, we’ve gone from an market of problems to actually having the strongest economy in the world, but we still have a lot to do.” Before we leave, I’m going to likely have to question the Congress for more cash to deal with some of those issues.
Biden’s open remarks were only about the market, but the Middle East pressure was the subject of the majority of the questions he addressed to reporters.
The president specifically stated that he was talking with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about “other options” than launching direct attacks on Iran and that senior U.S. officials were in regular touch with their Jewish counterparts.
Biden also briefly addressed the coming election, telling reporters that he was confident the election would be “free and fair” but could n’t guarantee it would be “peaceful”.
Trump’s statements and those he made last time when he did n’t like the outcome were very dangerous, he said.
