Washington, United States:
President Donald Trump, who is still being treated for Covid-19, said Thursday he will refuse to take part in the presidential debate next week after it was switched to a virtual format.
"I'm not going to do a virtual debate," he told Fox News, saying this was "not acceptable to us."
He accused the bipartisan debate commission of trying to "protect" his opponent Joe Biden.
