Congratulations to Joe Biden on his election as President of the United States of America.

He ran a campaign on decency, integrity, compassion and strength.
 
I also want to congratulate Kamala Harris on being elected Vice-President, the first woman and person of colour to take that role.
 
Their victory is one for hope and unity over dishonesty and division. Millions of Americans of all backgrounds and ages came together to vote for a better, more optimistic future.
 
This is also an important moment for the world.
It is a chance to reassert America’s place as a force for good on the world stage. A nation that will work with T&T and other allies to defeat this pandemic.
 
I am looking forward to T&T forging an even stronger relationship between T&T and the USA.
I offer President-elect Biden my best wishes for a successful term for himself as well as for the people of the United States of America
