04:05Several Parisians interviewed on Champs-Elysee avenue in Paris on Tuesday, expressed their thoughts and views on four years of Donald Trump's presidency and Joe Biden's presidential inauguration which is to take place on Wednesday in Washington DC.
"I see only positive things since the former president [Donald Trump] who will be leaving us tomorrow, quite honestly it will not be regretted as far as I am concerned. It was very complicated in terms of discussion, in terms of exchange," said Abib, a local. "He was opposed to everything that was French, especially imports, so I see nothing but positive," he added.
Commenting on Trump's mandate, Idriss, another Paris resident, said that police blunders and a lot of discrimination were taking place during this period, as Nelly, another interviewee stressed:
"Even if he made progress economically, I think the poor remained very poor and in terms of health there is no progress, he refused the plan, so it's a very good thing for the American people. All I hope is that tomorrow everything goes well."
Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are expected to be officially inaugurated on Wednesday, in a scaled-down ceremony, due to the coronavirus pandemic, and in light of the violent storming of the Capitol.
