Two weeks after announcing his decision to withdraw from a presidential debate scheduled to air on ABC in September, former President Donald Trump says he has reversed his position and will participate in the debate after all.

At a press conference on Thursday, Trump said he formally agreed to participate in the debate produced and distributed by ABC News, which is scheduled for September 10.

He previously agreed to participate in the debate when President Joe Biden was the presumed Democratic nominee. Biden, the incumbent, withdrew from the 2024 presidential race late last month, at which point Trump said he could no longer commit to the debate because the Democratic Party did not have a formal nominee.

Biden endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the nominee for the Democratic Party. Harris received enough delegate votes to secure the nominee this week.

Trump previously suggested the debate move from ABC News to the Fox News Channel while he pursues a defamation lawsuit against the Disney-owned network.
