Biden plans to run for president again
He said this in an interview with MSNBC, Ukrinform reports, citing the Axios news website.
"I have not made that formal decision, but it's my intention. My intention to run again. And we have time to make that decision," Biden said.
He said that he had not formally announced his candidacy yet because "a whole series of regulations kick in" once he does. "I have to treat myself as a candidate from that moment on," he said.
Bloomberg, citing Biden's aides and associates, wrote in August that he was preparing to launch his re-election bid in the months after November's midterm congressional elections.
According to the report, Biden's resolve to mount a second White House bid is hardening even with polls showing most Democrats would prefer a candidate other than the 79-year-old president.
