The 59-year-old politician also played a role during the Barack Obama administration, but also worked alongside Al Gore.

Joe Biden, who won the US presidential election, chose Ron Klain as his future chief of staff in the White House.

“Ron Klain’s long and varied experience and ability to work with people of multiple political views is exactly what I need in a White House chief of staff when we face a crisis like this and need to unite the country again,” he wrote. in a statement from Biden.

Ron Klain, 59, was Joe Biden’s chief of staff when the Democratic politician was vice president of the United States from 2009 to 2017, but he was already working for Biden in the 1980s, when the current president was chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. .

Klain, by the way, started out as a lawyer, then participated in both campaigns of former Democratic President Bill Clinton, and since 1995 has been Vice President Al Gore’s chief of staff. Under the government of the former US President Barack Obama, he was responsible for dealing with the American outbreak of the Ebola epidemic in Africa, at which point he got the name “Tsar Ebola.” It is true that Klain was heavily criticized then because he did not have the proper medical experience, but Obama always defended him by citing his excellent managerial experience. However, Klain’s work was successful and was later recognized by public health experts.

The Guardian recalled that Klain was also a vocal critic of Donald Trump, primarily criticizing the former US president’s handling of the epidemic.
