Barack Obama decides to celebrate 60th birthday

Former President Barack Obama turns 60 today and wanted to celebrate with friends and family this weekend, but he has decided to have a smaller party after heavy criticism. On social media, there was an angry reaction to the party that the former US president and his wife wanted to host in the midst of a corona outbreak.

In several states and cities in the United States, the number of new infections is rapidly increasing due to the delta variant of the coronavirus. The announcement of the celebrations led to considerable criticism, especially from Republican politicians.

An Obama spokesman now tells People that the party will be a lot smaller than initially hoped. “This party has been planned for months and is therefore prepared to comply with all measures to prevent the spread of the virus. As the delta variant spreads, the former president and Mrs Obama have decided to shorten the guest list.”

Obama, through the spokesman, said he was very pleased with the birthday wishes from around the world. He looks forward to seeing the guests who can’t come at a later date.
