Trump seems to acknowledge Biden win, but he won't concede

13 Sept 06:22 Key points summarised by AI

President Trump seemingly acknowledged Joe Biden's victory for the first time in a tweet, stating "He won," but immediately clarified he would "concede NOTHING" and would continue efforts to overturn the election results.
Despite his apparent acknowledgment, Trump reiterated baseless claims of widespread fraud and a "rigged" election, which have been widely refuted by state and federal officials, as well as election security agencies.
The article highlights calls from figures like former President Obama, Biden's incoming chief of staff, and some Republican governors for a smooth transition, criticizing Trump and his allies for undermining democratic processes with false claims.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
