Joe Biden's resignation: Maduro praises decision at event in Barinas, Venezuela. Kamala Harris seeks Democratic nomination.

The president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, spoke out last Sunday regarding the decision taken by his counterpart in the United States, Joe Biden, to withdraw from his candidacy for the upcoming presidential elections. Maduro praised Biden's attitude, describing it as "sensible and responsible," as he prioritized his family and health over his political aspirations. These statements were made during an event held in the state of Barinas, in western Venezuela. In contrast to Maduro's words, Biden's resignation does not directly mention health or family reasons. The American president stated that his decision is based on what he considers best for the country, to withdraw from the presidential race and focus on fulfilling his duties as president for the remainder of his term. Maduro mentioned that he maintains constant dialogue with the United States government, although he did not provide details about these conversations. He expressed his support and well-wishes to the outgoing president, highlighting his decision as wise and correct, and even wished him health and a long life from Venezuela. After weeks of increasing criticism about the suitability of his candidacy, Biden finally chose to withdraw from the electoral race. In his place, he offered his support to Vice President Kamala Harris, who confirmed her intention to seek the Democratic nomination for the November 5 elections. In a letter addressed to the nation, the 81-year-old Biden expressed that it has been an honor to be president and that, despite his initial intention to seek reelection, he considers it best for his party and his country to withdraw from the race and focus on his remaining presidential duties. Following this decision, Kamala Harris assumed responsibility and expressed her intention to obtain and win the Democratic nomination for the Presidency of the United States. Despite receiving some initial support, the news of Biden's resignation had an impact on the American political scene, marking the beginning of a new stage in the electoral campaign. Biden's resignation comes after a presidential debate in which he appeared disoriented at various moments, fueling criticism about his age and ability to exercise the presidency. This situation, combined with internal pressures within his party, may have been decisive in his decision to step away from the electoral race. Amid an increasingly turbulent political scenario, Biden's resignation and support for Harris pose new challenges and opportunities for the Democratic Party in the upcoming presidential elections. Uncertainty and expectation mark the beginning of a period of reconfiguration in American politics, with national and international repercussions.
