During a recent NATO summit, President Joe Biden made a notable verbal slip when he mistakenly referred to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as “President Putin”. This amusing gaffe occurred as Biden was introducing Zelenskyy to address the audience.
Biden quickly recognized his error, acknowledging “President Putin? President Zelenskyy – I’m so focused on beating Putin.” Zelenskyy’s reaction to this verbal mix-up has since gone viral, with many noting his “awkward smile” in response.
