Nagpaabot na si Pangulong Duterte ng kanyang mensahe ng pagbati kay bagong US President Joe Biden.
“Our President, Rodrigo Roa Duterte, sends his warmest greetings and best wishes to 46th President of the United States, Joseph “Joe” Biden and to his Vice President Kamala Harris,” sabi ni Presidential spokesman Harry Roque.
Pinuri ni Roque ang pagkakahalal kay Biden at sinabing ipinakita ng Amerika sa buong mundo ang pagkakaroon ng demokratikong proseso.
“It has always been an exemplar to the wold and today it has reassured the world that its people remain committed to peaceful electoral transitions and the noble principle of representative democracy,” banggit pa ni Roque.
Umaasa aniya ang Pilipinas na magpapatuloy ang magandang relasyon ng Pilipinas at US sa ilalim ng administrasyong-Biden.
