Biden takes office as the 46th President of the United States... Announcement of the new order of'The Return of America'

US President-elect Biden is inaugurated as the 46th President on the 20th (local time).

A professional politician with a brilliant career, who has served as a senator for 36 years and vice president for eight years, after a third challenge, ascends to the position of president of the superpower United States, marking the beginning of the Biden era.

Biden, who is standing at the forefront of President Trump in terms of lines and policies, is expected to make a thorough break with his former administration and set out to establish a new order both inside and outside the United States, leading to significant changes in the international community.

Biden's inauguration ceremony is held on the outdoor stage in the Capitol, Washington DC, on the afternoon of the 20th local time.

In front of Chief Justice John Roberts, he sworn in office and unveiled his vision for state affairs through his inaugural address.

According to the constitution, the term of office begins at 12:00 noon (2 a.m. on the 21st Korean time).

At the end of the inauguration ceremony, they are inspected for honor guards at the Capitol, head to Arlington National Cemetery to make flowers, and move to the White House while escorted by the military.

In the past, the presidential inauguration ceremony was a festival-like event that attracted hundreds of thousands of people, but this year, fears of armed protests amid the Corona 19 pandemic are growing, and it is held in an atmosphere like a military operation guarded by 25,000 national guards.

Luncheons, parades, and prom have been canceled or converted to virtual.

As soon as Biden enters the White House, he will sign more than 10 executive orders and orders and take a strong drive to state affairs.

In particular, he has cited President Trump's “U.S. Priority” as the top priority for abolition, and he has come to the international community to show off leadership differentiated from the Trump era.

Biden believes that Trump's foreign policy has resulted in the deterioration of the US status, and is focusing on revitalizing multilateralism and restoring alliances based on the US leading role.

This leads to observations that the Trump administration's trade conflict against the alliance and pressure to raise defense costs will be substantially resolved or eased.

It is also expected to have a positive effect on strengthening the ROK-US alliance.

However, Biden's emphasis on the alliance also reflects the intention of restraining China, which the United States regards as its biggest rival, so that traditional allies, including South Korea, can fall into troubles to find their place in the swirl of US-China conflict.

In the case of North Korea's denuclearization, Biden's emphasis on alliance and coordination could broaden South Korea's reach, but it remains to be seen how the bottom-up approach, starting with working-level negotiations instead of Trump's top-down, will actually work.

For the Biden administration, resolving internal issues within the United States is an immediate challenge.

Overcoming Corona 19, the world's number one infected and dead person, the extreme economic recession caused by the health crisis, and the dissolution of the deepening division are urgent.

Elect Biden believes that unity and unity that unite the heart is essential for overcoming the crisis, and the inaugural address will also focus on integration.

During the ten days of taking office, Biden will issue dozens of executive orders, extinguishing the crisis, and present a blueprint for the'Biden Era'.

Looking at the initial task, overcoming Corona 19, such as wearing a mask for 100 days, expanding screenings and vaccinations, and economic remedies, is the most urgent issue.

It also includes a number of differentiating contents by overturning Trump's flagship policies, such as rejoining the Paris Climate Change Convention and easing immigration policies.

The fact that the Democratic Party won majority seats in both the Senate and House of Representatives in the elections held together with the presidential election is positive in that the Biden administration laid the groundwork for future state administration.

However, the situation in which the Republican Party's opposition to various reform tasks, including the state of impeachment due to Trump's impeachment trial, and the Corona 19 budget bill, is expected to serve as a test of political power in the early days of the Biden administration. .
