Embarrassing Mix-up: Joe Biden Introduces Zelensky as ‘President Putin’ at Nato Summit

Biden's Slip-Up

During a Ukraine Compact initiative at the Nato summit in Washington, US President Joe Biden mistakenly introduced Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky as "President Putin."

Quick Correction

Amid the gaffe, Biden quickly corrected himself as he welcomed Zelensky onto the stage, emphasizing his focus on "beating Putin."

Response to Criticism

New British PM Sir Keir Starmer defended Biden after an hour-long bilateral meeting, refuting claims of Biden being "senile" as he faces calls to step down as the Democrat candidate.

Challenges Ahead

Biden's slip-up comes as he prepares for a crucial news conference to address concerns about his ability to compete against Donald Trump in the upcoming election and continue in the high-pressure role for another term.
