Washington: The Donald Trump campaign says President Joe Biden has called to congratulate the president-elect on his victory and invited him to the White House to discuss transitioning administrations, media reports said on Thursday.

“President Donald Trump looks forward to the meeting, which will take place shortly, and very much appreciated the call,” Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung said in a statement to the BBC.

It’s important to note that Donald Trump did not extend this invitation to Biden after losing the 2020 presidential election, in a departure from tradition, the BBC reports said.

Presidents usually invite the incoming administration to the White House, greet them on the steps of the North Portico, and then ride with them to the US Capitol for the inauguration ceremony which Trump did not attend in 2021.
