MOSCOW, Jan 7 — Outgoing US President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he will orderly hand over power to President-elect Joe Biden on January 20 despite his disagreement with the election results, adding that the transition will put an end to "the greatest" presidential term, Sputnik news agency reported.
"Even though I totally disagree with the outcome of the election, and the facts bear me out, nevertheless there will be an orderly transition on January 20. I have always said we would continue our fight to ensure that only legal votes were counted.
“While this represents the end of the greatest first term in presidential history, it's only the beginning of our fight to Make America Great Again!," Trump said as quoted by his assistant Dan Scavino on Twitter.
Earlier, the US Congress voted to certify Biden’s November election victory, hours after the joint session was interrupted when Trump supporters stormed the US Capitol building.
