The online portal "kosova-sot.info" has published an article titled "Trump accepts Biden's victory."
This article contains a fabricated headline, which does not match the content. The text of this article states that the Republican majority leader in the US Senate, Mitch McConnell, has congratulated Democratic President-elect Joe Biden on his victory in the November 3 elections, but not Donald Trump as claimed in the headline of the "Kosova Sot" article.
Trump still insists he won last month's election, even though dozens of lawsuits related to his claims that he was unfairly denied a second term have been dismissed by the courts.
A portion of the text from the article published by "Kosova Sot":
Trump accepts Biden's victory
Republican Majority Leader in the US Senate, Mitch McConnell, congratulated Democratic President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris on their victory in the November 3 election, thus ending the long silence on the outcome of the presidential race.
In his remarks on the Senate floor, McConnell acknowledged the Democrats' victory after the official Electoral College results on Monday. McConnell ended his nearly 10-minute speech largely praising Republican President Donald Trump, saying, "Today I want to congratulate President-elect Joe Biden," adding that Biden "has been dedicated to public service for many years."
