US President-elect Joe Biden said that he would rebuild the foreign policy of the United States, stressing that this priority is one of the most challenges that his administration will face in order to restore the world's confidence.
In a speech in the eastern US city of Wilmington after his meeting with the team of experts on foreign policy and national security files on Monday, Biden complained again that his transitional team had not obtained all the information it needed from the administration of his outgoing predecessor, Donald Trump.
"We are not getting all the information we need from the current administration, including the Pentagon," Biden said.
At the same time, he pointed out that many of the country's national security agencies had suffered great damage during the Trump administration and had become "hollow", and pointed to the need to modernize the defense system to meet the challenges.
"We will rebuild our foreign policy, and this is one of the most difficult challenges that the next administration will face," he said, adding that the United States cannot solve problems on its own, especially with regard to climate change.
Turning to the recent cyber attacks on major institutions in the country recently, the US President-elect said, "We must work on a bipartisan basis to protect the American people from malicious cyber attacks."
He affirmed his administration's support for human rights, and added, "We need to restore the confidence of the world that found a way to work without us."
He indicated that his team is working in difficult conditions in light of the Corona pandemic.
