WASHINGTON: President-elect Joe Biden is all set to be sworn in as the 46th President of the United States of America. Biden is all set to deliver forward-looking inaugural speech built around the theme of unity, days after supporters of the outgoing President Trump stormed the US Capitol in a bid to stop the certification of Biden as President.

Joe Biden, in his maiden address to the nation soon after being sworn in as the 46th President of the United States, would deliver a forward-looking speech built around the theme of unity, advisors close to the President-elect said.

According to the advisors, in his first moments after being sworn in as the 46th President of the United States by Chief Justice John Roberts after the clock strikes 12 noon (local time) at the West Front of the Capitol, Biden will speak about the need to bring the country together during an "unprecedented moment of crisis."

He will reach out to all Americans, and call on every citizen to be part of meeting the extraordinary challenges facing fellow Americans, his advisors said Tuesday to media on the condition of anonymity.

"Biden's remarks will be a forward-looking vision for his presidency while addressing the moment we are living in as a country. The speech is built around the theme of unity, said the advisors who were not authorized to speak to the press," a source has been quoted as saying.

The speech is likely to last between 20 and 30 minutes. The theme of the speech is 'America United.'
