Reuters on the night of October 8 reported that President Trump’s campaign agreed to move the remaining two rounds of debate with Democratic candidate Joe Biden to October 22 and October 29.
As originally expected, these two rounds of debate will take place on October 15 and 22. However, after President Trump contracted Covid-19, Biden refused to participate in the debate until Trump recovered from his illness.
After that, the Presidential Debating Committee decided that Round 2 would hold an online debate, but President Trump disagreed.
Biden’s campaign said it would answer questions directly from voters next week and called for a rescheduling.
“Since the president refuses to participate in the October 15 debate, we hope the Election Commission will move to October 22 so that the president cannot shirk his responsibility,” said Biden, spokeswoman Kate Bedingfield. .
In a statement, President Trump’s campaign said it is ready to discuss with its opponent whether next week’s round of debate is postponed until October 22.
