Biden vows peaceful transition

Newshour

In his first public address since the US Presidential election, Joe Biden has commended Kamala Harris, saying she led an inspiring campaign, and has promised a peaceful transition for Donald Trump. We'll ask a newly elected congressman, Brendan Boyle, what the Democratic Party will do next. And speak to Matt Duss, executive vice president at the Center for International Policy, why things went so wrong for the democrats. And one Mr Trump's most most loyal lieutenants, his former secretary of commerce, Wilbur Ross, on what he thinks of Donald Trump's economic plans this time around.

Also on the programme: UNESCO to hold a meeting to consider enhancing protection for cultural sites in Lebanon where Israel is continuing to launch strikes; and President Zelensky says calls for a ceasefire in Ukraine without guarantees of security for the country are dangerous and irresponsible.
