New Delhi: In a dramatic turn of events in the 2024 U.S. presidential election, Vice President Kamala Harris concedes to former President Donald Trump, who has won the election and secured his way back to the White House. As former President Barack Obama and world leaders responded, Harris promised in her concession speech to ensure a peaceful transition of power.
As Harris spoke to the nation, she appealed for Americans to stand together regardless of the results, standing firmly on unity and resilience. “I am committed to ensuring a peaceful transition that strengthens our democracy,” she stated.
The ripple effects of Trump’s victory were easy to notice as global reactions swung from concern to optimism. Anxiety built in Mexico with different promises from Donald Trump of the past, the promise to do things such as put in place higher tariffs and even possibly to go after drug cartels with some military action. The peso responded accordingly and tumbled against the dollar, in turn prompting Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum to assure citizens of stronger-than-ever U.S.-Mexico relations. “Not a reason for alarm,” she told the public, gesturing to diplomacy as holding it all together.
Meanwhile, former President Obama reportedly expressed words of resignation on his social media feeds regarding the election win by Donald Trump. “This is not the outcome we hoped for,” he posted, indicating the deep ideological divisions between Trump and the Democratic Party. At the same time, Obama emphasized democracy intending to encourage Americans to “extend good faith and grace” one to another, even as they disagree.
As Trump prepares for his second term, citizens in the U.S. and around the world brace themselves for the shifts he will implement into policy, keenly watching how his administration will address pressing issues both domestically and internationally.
