ABC News (Australia) published this video item, entitled “The inauguration of 46th US President Joe Biden and VP Kamala Harris | ABC News” – below is their description.

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have been sworn-in as President and Vice-President of the United States with promises to heal the divisions of the last four years.

The two have take their oaths of office in an emotional ceremony, held in unprecedented circumstances and under heavy security.

President Biden inherits a nation crippled by the coronavirus pandemic, deeply divided along political lines, and diminished as a world superpower. While it was a stripped back ceremony, it still had its share of star-power including performances from Jennifer Lopez and Lady Gaga.
