Asked about the next US presidential election at a press conference in Brussels, Joe Biden said he would feel “fortunate” to run against Donald Trump again, even as European governments worry that the 45th president could return to the White House.
Reflecting on his own standing among world leaders – even as his domestic approval ratings remain low – Mr Biden remarked that the US’s reputation had recovered quickly since Mr Trump put its crucial western alliances under severe strain. He was asked by a reporter from the German magazine Der Spiegel whether he feared his commitments to Nato could be overturned should Mr Trump be re-elected in 2024.
