Immediately after their inauguration, Twitter transfers the presidential accounts to Biden and Harris

Twitter activated the official accounts of US President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and their two spouses on Wednesday, after 4 years in which former President Donald Trump's tweets printed the website's diary, before it was banned from it.

A spokeswoman for the site confirmed that the account of former President-elect Biden became the presidential account and bore the initials of the words of the words of the President of the United States in English, or "POTUS", and Kamala Harris's account became the official account of the US Vice President and bore the letters "VP", namely The first two letters of the phrase "Vice President" are in English.

Minutes after she was sworn in in Washington, the new Vice President of the United States published a tweet saying "Ready to serve."

Ready to serve.

Jill Biden's account became the official account of the first American woman, while an account was created for Douglas Imhoff, Kamala Harris' husband, "The Second Master."

In his first presidential tweet, Biden said, "There is no time to waste to address the crises facing us."

The time to move forward is now.

The new president's account is followed by 2.7 million people so far, a number that is on the rise, but it remains well below the 88 million accounts that were following the president's race, Donald Trump, on his personal account before his ban.

Twitter was the billionaire's primary platform, which he used to make political ads, attack his opponents, and even insult them.

The role of his tweets in the attack by some of his supporters on the Capitol building on January 6 during the endorsement session for Biden's victory in the presidency was the last straw for many communication platforms.

In the days that followed, Facebook, Snapchat, Twitch and Twitter all blocked Trump accounts.

And when Trump tried to use the president's official account to respond, the site immediately deleted his tweets.

"Using another account to avoid being suspended is against our rules," a Twitter spokesperson explained at the time.

However, the platform's decision also sparked criticism, as it reflects the influence of the giant tech companies that have in fact exiled a head of state from social networks.

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey himself considered that decision a "dangerous precedent" because it shows the influence an individual or company has over part of the global public debate.
