UK says Biden confirmation shows U.S. democracy rejects violence

British Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said on Tuesday the confirmation of Joe Biden as the next president of the United States showed democracy there could not be challenged by a violent minority.

“The resumption of Congress and the certification of Joe Biden’s victory on Jan. 7 sent an essential message that the democratic will of the U.S. people cannot be challenged by a violent minority,” Raab told parliament.
