It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve you as President. And although I intended to run for re-election, I believe that it is in the best interest of my party and country for me to step aside and focus solely on fulfilling my duties as president for the remainder of my term, Biden said in a statement.
He also said that he will contact the citizens of the United States later this week with more details about his decision.
In the end, Biden also thanked "everyone who worked for his re-election." At the same time, the president did not announce who, in his opinion, should become a candidate for the US presidential election in 2024.
Let me thank all those who worked so hard for my re-election. I want to thank Vice President Kamal Harris for being an incredible partner in work all this time," Biden wrote.
We will remind
Politico has learned that US Vice President Kamala Harris' allies have begun reaching out to Democratic donors to provide her with financial support if President Joe Biden drops out of the race.
