NEW YORK (TND) — Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump remembered the victims of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, hours after the presidential debate.

Both presidential candidates shake hands before the ceremony at the 9/11 Memorial Plaza in New York City.

President Joe Biden stood between the rivals as they greeted each other amid family members, other political leaders and onlookers.

Biden reportedly shook Trump’s hand with a grin when he and Harris arrived.

Former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg appears to have facilitated the greeting between Harris and Trump.

Senators Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) were also in the front row.

It had been just over 12 hours since the presidential candidates last saw each other in Pennsylvania.

Supporters were heard chanting “Kamala” and “Trump” as Democrats and Republicans posed for photos.

Wednesday marks 23 years since terrorists hijacked planes and killed nearly 3,000 people.

If politicians “care about what’s really going on, fine. Be here,” Korryn Bishop, who lost her cousin John F. McDowell Jr., told the Associated Press. “If they’re just here for political influence, then I find that annoying.”

Biden and Harris are expected at 9/11 ceremonies in Pennsylvania and at the Pentagon, the other sites where terrorists crashed commercial planes with travelers on board.

Trump and his running mate Vance met with New York City firefighters after the ceremony at Ground Zero.

Trump is next expected at the Flight 93 National Memorial near rural Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
