It's a political victory that our country has never seen before, he says.

With him on stage are several party friends and family members, including his wife Melania Trump, his children, and vice presidential candidate JD Vance with his wife.

We have just witnessed the greatest political comeback in US history, says Vance from the stage.

Who has won the presidential election in the US is not yet decided, but Trump is heading for victory. According to media companies AP, CNN, NBC, and Fox News, he has, among other things, taken home the crucial swing state of Pennsylvania.

I will fight for all citizens with every breath in my body.

This is going to be a golden era for the US. It's a fantastic victory for the American people. We will make the US great again, says Trump.

Trump proclaims himself the winner in his speech and calls himself the 47th president of the US, with many listeners shouting "USA, USA". They also shout "Elon", referring to Tesla and X CEO Elon Musk, who has campaigned for Trump.

We have a new star. A star has been born – Elon, says Trump in response to the shouts, one of many tributes to the billionaire during the speech.

He also says that the Republicans have gained a majority in the House of Representatives and in the Senate. And he notes that he has also received the most votes.

We have made history, says Donald Trump.
