Biden vows shift from Trump with national security team

President-elect Joe Biden promised a shift from President Trump's "America First" policy while unveiling nominees for his foreign policy and national security team on Tuesday, vowing that America would return to working with its international partners.

Biden, speaking the day after the General Services Administration (GSA) certified the election results to officially begin the presidential transition, spotlighted the deep experience of his appointees while also highlighting their diversity. He emphasized the need for an administration that reflects the U.S. population.

"It's a team that reflects that America is back. Ready to lead the world, not retreat from it," Biden said on stage at the Queen Theater in Wilmington, Del., while formally introducing the appointees.

"They embody my core beliefs that America is strongest when it works with its allies. Collectively, this team has secured some of the most defining national security and diplomatic achievements in recent memory - made possible through decades of experience working with our partners," he said.
