[Asia Economy Reporter Hana Na] Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden stated, "They and we are merely opponents, not enemies."


With Joe Biden's presidential victory becoming certain, at around 10:50 AM on the 6th (local time), he claimed on Twitter that he does not consider Trump an enemy, while emphasizing the importance of the vote counting process and urging 'patience.'


He said, "We are merely opponents, not enemies; we are Americans," adding, "We must remember that the purpose of politics is not endless war."


He continued, "We have finished a very tough election and understand that tensions are high," but also stated, "We must remain calm. We must be patient. And we must watch the counting process work so that every last vote is counted."


Currently, the pinned message at the top of his Twitter account reads, "Let's stay calm. We will win."


In his speech that day, he also said, "I know the TV count feels slow," but emphasized, "But let's not forget. Counting is not just about numbers. (Each and every vote) represents all the men and women exercising their fundamental rights in this land."



Meanwhile, President Donald Trump has repeatedly expressed his refusal to accept the election results and has signaled legal disputes.
