Biden explains why he’s not standing for President again

He’s been in public life for more than half a century, but Joe Biden began his long, slow goodbye last night, with an Oval Office address explaining to the American public why he’s not standing for another four years in the White House.

He said he’ll see out his term, pledging to focus on the host of difficult political challenges in his in-tray, from curbing price rises to ending the war in Gaza. And he’s been meeting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the last couple of hours.
