The newly elected US President Donald Trump said that he intends to sign almost 100 executive orders on his first day in office.
“Within a few hours of taking office, I will sign dozens of executive orders, the number will be close to a hundred“, said the future American leader.
Trump added that the documents will be aimed at “cancelling a lot of things that Biden has done.“
Earlier, senior economic adviser to the Trump campaign, Stephen Moore, said that the new head of state could sign 50 to 100 executive orders on his first day in office, expect more in the coming weeks. The economist believes that most of the decrees will be devoted to energy issues.
This way, Trump can cancel Biden's orders on bans on energy production and development of new oil and gas fields in certain territories, the use of electric vehicles, funding for clean energy development programs and tightening environmental standards.
Trump's inauguration will take place at noon on January 20.
