US President-elect Joe Biden introduced his Cabinet nominees and appointees Tuesday and said he is ready to confront the nation’s adversaries and not reject allies.

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

"It's a team that will keep our country and our people safe and secure and it's a team that reflects the fact that America is back—ready to lead the world, not retreat from it," Biden said at a news briefing in Wilmington, Delaware.

Some key nominees and appointees have already been announced, with some coming Monday.

Among them is Antony Blinken for Secretary of State, Alejandro Mayorkas who will head the Department of Homeland Security, Linda Thomas-Greenfield as UN Ambassador, Avril Haines nominated as Director of National Intelligence, and John Kerry as Special Presidential Envoy for Climate.

"They embody my core beliefs that America is strongest when it works with its allies," said Biden of his nominees assembled behind him.
