Washington:
US President Joe Biden welcomed Thursday's vote by the Senate to raise the national debt limit through 2024 and avert a first ever default as a "big win" for Americans.
"No one gets everything they want in a negotiation, but make no mistake: this bipartisan agreement is a big win for our economy and the American people," he tweeted, adding that he would sign the bill "as soon as possible" and address the nation Friday.
