The New York Times clearly stated, ``Biden is not the man he was four years ago.'' He called for a new candidate who can defeat former Republican President Trump in the November election.
The Washington Post called for the Democratic Party to choose a new candidate, saying, "It has been clear for about a year that Mr. Biden should not run for re-election." He recalled that his belief that Mr. Biden could win and the loyal support of his wife, Jill, and his close aides held him back from making a decision, and stated, ``Now is the time for me to be honest.''
The conservative newspaper Wall Street Journal also said that Biden was weak in the debate, arguing that ``no one in the country would want him to confront Russian President Vladimir Putin or Chinese President Xi Jinping.'' . ``The bitter truth for the Democratic Party is that if Mr. Biden becomes the official candidate, Mr. Trump's qualifications may not matter,'' a Democratic Party aide said, asking why they were running Mr. Biden.

Amid rumors of US President Biden withdrawing from the election campaign, it has been reported that his wife Jill and other family members have asked Mr Biden to continue the campaign.
Concerns about President Biden's aging grew during last week's televised debate, leading to talk of withdrawing from the presidential race within the Democratic Party.
Under these circumstances, multiple American media outlets, including the New York Times, reported that members of Biden's family, including his wife Jill and his second son Hunter, appealed to Biden to continue his campaign.
The family was staying at Camp David, the president's private mountain retreat, over the weekend. Mr. Biden is said to place importance on the advice of his family when making important political decisions, such as whether or not to leave office.
Mr. Biden was asked by reporters on the 1st about continuing the campaign, but he did not respond.

US President Biden explained that his unstable appearance during the presidential election television debate on the 27th of last month (local time) was due to accumulated fatigue from overseas trips.
According to the White House Joint Reporting Team, Mr. Biden admitted on the 2nd that he had trouble navigating a televised debate at a campaign fundraiser in McLean, Virginia, near Washington, D.C. Regarding his continued overseas business trips ahead of the debate, he said, ``I was not very wise.''
Mr. Biden said, ``I made the decision to go out into the world twice (for business trips) right after the TV debate,'' and ``I didn't listen to what my staff said, and I fell asleep on the stage (during the debate).'' That's what happened,'' he said.
Reuters reported that Mr. Biden blamed his disastrous performance in last week's debate on his unforgiving overseas schedule, calling it ``an explanation, not an excuse.''

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A national opinion poll released by the New York Times (NYT) and the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) on the 3rd shows that former President Trump has become President Biden after last week's presidential debate. It turned out that they had built up a considerable lead.
A poll by the NYT and Siena College found that among registered voters who are likely to vote in November's presidential election, Mr. Trump's approval rating was 49%, 6 points higher than Mr. Biden (43%). This is Trump's largest lead in the poll since 2015. Trump led by 9 points among all registered voters.
The WSJ poll also shows Trump leading Biden by 6 points. Trump's lead in February was 2 points.
Both surveys show that Biden's age, 81, has an impact on his approval ratings, with approximately 80% of respondents in the WSJ survey saying that Biden is too old to seek a second term.

On April 7, the Washington Post reported, based on sources involved, that Trump's plan to end the war was to "give up on trying to retake the Russian-occupied Crimea Peninsula and the eastern Donbas region, effectively surrendering them to Russia. ''
Many people would have thought, ``I guess so.'' If we are talking about ending the war within 24 hours, we cannot think of it without making full concessions to Russia.
On June 14, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from the Crimean Peninsula and four eastern regions, the lifting of economic sanctions against Russia, and that Ukraine would no longer join the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). announced two ceasefire conditions.
Mr. Trump's thinking is in line with what Russia is saying.
This is a nerve-wracking story for those who want Ukraine to win, but is it not worth considering at all? Not necessarily. A similar idea has long been pointed out by an influential American international political scientist.
Professor John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago, a well-known international political scientist who takes a realist stance, published a paper in June last year titled ``Darkness awaits the future of the war in Ukraine,'' and he has already expressed concern about the Crimean peninsula. He pointed out the difficulty of recapturing the four eastern states. It looks like this:
``Russia believes that it is facing a crisis of national survival.'' In addition to Crimea, Russia has annexed Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk, and Zaporizhia oblasts. This makes up 23% of Ukraine's total. In addition, it will probably try to annex four oblasts: Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, Mykolaiv and Odessa. This makes up 43% of the total.
(Meanwhile, since the war began in February 2022, the West's perception of a crisis toward Russia has escalated to the level of ``an existential threat.'' The same goes for Ukraine. In other words, all parties to the war believe that unless the battle is won, a terrible outcome awaits them.
