The Presidential Conferences Committee in the United States determined tonight (Tuesday) that the microphone of each of the presidential candidates, Donald Trump and Joe Biden, will be silenced in parts of the third and final confrontation scheduled to take place this coming Thursday, to allow the opponent to speak without interruption.



According to the committee's announcement, at the beginning of each of the six confrontation segments, each candidate will be given two minutes to answer a preliminary question.

An open discussion will then take place, during which both microphones will be open.



The commission clarified that the decision on the change was made following the first confrontation between Trump and Biden, which was defined as particularly chaotic and turbulent.

At the same time, the Trump campaign called for a change in the focus of the forthcoming confrontation - so that it would focus more on foreign policy.



Trump has announced he will participate in the confrontation, although he believes the conditions are unfair.

"I'll attend, I just think it's very unfair," Trump told reporters.

He said, "It is very unfair that they have changed the issues of the confrontation, and it is very unfair that we have a completely biased confrontation again."

Trump attacked the scientific experts he aided by his government, saying they were too negative about the plague that killed nearly 220,000 Americans.

"People are tired of hearing about Pucci and all these idiots," the president said of the chief infectious disease specialist.

"Every time he talks on TV, there is always some bomb. But it will be a bigger bomb if I fire him. Pucci is a disaster," he added.



Pauchi said earlier this week in an interview with CBS '"60 Minutes" that he was not surprised that Trump contracted the virus after hosting a series of big events with little face coverage.

"I was afraid he would get sick when I saw him in a state of overcrowding, with no separation between people when almost no one was wearing a mask," Pucci said of the president.

"Every time he talks on TV there's a bomb."

At a rally in Arizona, Trump also attacked his rival Biden for pledging to heed the advice of scientific experts.

He dismissed that his opponent "wants to listen to Dr. Pauchi." Trump's rejection of scientific advice on the epidemic has already drawn condemnation from both parties.



His opponent Biden, on the other hand, did not hold an election event yesterday, but his campaign team praised Dr. Pucci and criticized Trump for "reckless and negligent leadership that threatens to endanger more lives."

Biden's campaign stressed that "Trump's message in the last days of the race is to publicly mock Joe Biden for trusting in science and to call on Dr. Pauchi, the leading health expert - a 'disaster' and an idiot."
