The President of the United States has pledged to ensure a peaceful and orderly transition.
The Prime Minister of the Faroe Islands Bárður á Steig Nielsen is pleased by this turn of events: “While it is fair and proper to challenge results and make sure that the electoral process is fair and legal, it is also evident that once the results are clear, it is time to accept them and celebrate democracy. Peaceful and well-organised transfer of power is the fundamental strength of western democracy.”
