Washington: The next debate between US President Donald Trump and his Democratic contender Joseph Biden will focus on several topics including COVID-19 and national security, the Commission on Presidential debates said in a statement on Friday.

"Kristen Welker, moderator of the October 22, 2020 presidential debate, has selected the topics for that debate," the Commission said. The full list of topics includes fighting COVID-19, American families, Race in America, climate change, national security and leadership, it added.

The next debate will be held on October 22 at Belmont University in Nashville.

Earlier, the second presidential debate between President Trump and Biden was officially off. The decision was made a day after the commission announced the debate would take place 'virtually' because Trump had contracted the coronavirus.

According to a new poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research, the overwhelming majority of voters believe the nation is deeply divided over its most important values, and many have doubts about the health of the democracy itself. And supporters of President Donald Trump and Joe Biden alike think the opposing candidate will make things even worse if elected.
