US President-elect Joe Biden will formally introduce the first people he has chosen for his
cabinet later, as the transition of power gathers pace.
Many of the choices, already announced, are Mr Biden's colleagues from his years in the Obama administration.

President Donald Trump has finally agreed that the transition process should start, after weeks of wrangling.

The General Services Administration (GSA), the federal agency overseeing the handover, said it was now acknowledging Mr Biden as the "apparent winner" of the 3 November election.

The move grants the Democrat access to millions of dollars in funds, as well as access to national security briefings and government officials, so he can properly prepare to take over the presidency on 20 January.

Mr Trump said the GSA must "do what needs to be done", but still refuses to concede the election, repeating unsubstantiated claims of a "rigged election".

A statement from the transition team said those being nominated "are experienced, crisis-tested leaders who are ready to hit the ground running on day one".

It said: "These officials will start working immediately to rebuild our institutions, renew and re-imagine American leadership to keep Americans safe at home and abroad, and address the defining challenges of our time - from infectious disease, to terrorism, nuclear proliferation, cyber threats, and climate change."

It is not yet clear when Mr Biden will be given his first classified national security briefing as incoming president. The so-called Presidential Daily Brief gives Mr Trump details of the latest international threats and developments.

Mr Biden revealed his key picks for his national security and foreign policy teams on Monday. Almost all of the top posts will require Senate approval.
In his choice of a national security team, Joe Biden has signalled that the US is resuming its conventional international role, after four turbulent years of Donald Trump's America First.

He's appointing Obama administration veterans to top positions and elevating a long-serving career diplomat sidelined by the Trump administration.
His pick for secretary of state, Antony Blinken, is an advocate of global alliances. If confirmed, Mr Blinken will lead the charge to re-establish ties with allies and rejoin agreements and institutions rejected by Mr Trump. And there's no doubt that he'll be speaking for the man in the White House: Mr Blinken has advised Joe Biden on foreign policy for so long he's been described as an alter ego.

Another familiar face is former Secretary of State John Kerry. The president-elect's decision to give him a new cabinet-level position as climate envoy shows he's treating the issue as a significant national security threat.

But even with the old team this is not going to be Obama 2.0: the landscape has shifted in both America and the world during the past four years. Still, Mr Biden is projecting stability and familiarity, and international leaders know what they will be getting.
