President-elect Trump is ripping President Biden over what he says is a difficult transition period, expressing frustration with the current president for still seeking to set policies that fly in the face of what he would support.

When President Biden took office four years ago, he sought to reassure global allies and reestablish foreign treaties from which the Trump administration had withdrawn.

President Joe Biden touted his foreign-policy accomplishments in a speech aimed at burnishing his legacy before he departs office next week, arguing that his actions over the last four years leave the US in a stronger position for President-elect Donald Trump.

In these final actions of his presidency, Biden is asserting his domestic and foreign-policy principles before Trump takes charge.
