U.S. Vice President Mike Pence will attend president elect Joe Biden's inauguration, according to a senior official.
President Donald Trump yesterday claimed he would not attend the January 20 ceremony; becoming the first sitting president since 1869 to refuse.
Mr Pence was criticised by the President for his role in certifying Electoral College votes reflecting Joe Biden's election win.
Democratic leaders have called on the Vice President to invoke the 25th Amendment and force Trump from office.
