British Prime Minister Boris Johnson congratulated US President-elect Joe Biden on his election win in a phone call on Tuesday.

Axar.az informs that this was reported by foreign media.

“I just spoke to @JoeBiden to congratulate him on his election,” he wrote on Twitter.

“I look forward to strengthening the partnership between our countries and to working with him on our shared priorities – from tackling climate change, to promoting democracy and building back better from the pandemic.”

Johnson’s outreach came amid discussions in the UK on the legislation of the Internal Market Bill, which suffered a major defeat in the House of Lords in an amendment vote last night.
