Joe Biden takes office as the 46th president of the United States. In the next two days, he signs 25 executive orders. Trump had signed 25 in 90 days, Obama in several months. George W. Bush took even longer. Biden intends to U-turn on several previous policies, including in particular an aggressive response to Covid-19, the reopening of flights to Arab countries halted by Trump, rejoining the climate treaty, and halting construction of the wall with Mexico.
