Washington. La comisión encargada de organizar los debates de la campaña electoral de Estados Unidos anunció el viernes que canceló el segundo duelo verbal entre Donald Trump y Joe Biden, inicialmente previsto para el próximo jueves en Miami, Florida.

Tras el contagio del presidente estadounidense con el coronavirus, el comité decidió que el debate se realizaría en forma virtual, algo que Trump rechazó de plano.
