United States President Joe Biden has addressed the nation after Republican Donald Trump stormed to victory in the presidential elections.

Projections have Trump returning to the White House after clinching a number of battleground states in the country’s east.

Biden said he hoped for a smooth and peaceful transition to the new administration.

On Thursday, Democratic nominee Kamala Harris called Trump to concede the race.
