US President Joseph Biden said that negotiations with Republican congressmen over the $1.900 trillion pandemic relief plan could last two more weeks. "I don't expect to know if we have an agreement and to what extent this plan can pass as a whole until we are at the very end of the negotiations," Biden told reporters at the White House last night. It will "probably be in two weeks", added the US president, stating that it is "just the beginning of the process". Republicans have expressed opposition to the Democrats' bill, which would increase funding for the coronavirus vaccination campaign, add $400 to weekly unemployment benefits and pay most Americans $1.400. The administration of Joseph Biden believes that additional funds are needed to help the American economy.
