President Joe Biden found himself in an awkward situation when he dodged a question about an Israeli hostage deal by asking a reporter if she could avoid getting hit by a camera.
Awkward exchange after meeting with Israeli President
The incident took place after a meeting with Israeli President Isaac Herzog at the White House to discuss the conflict in Gaza and Lebanon, as well as the release of hostages. Israeli journalist Neria Kraus had asked Biden if a hostage deal could be reached by the end of his term.
Biden's history of gaffes
This is not the first time President Biden has faced criticism for his interactions with reporters. Known for snapping at journalists and making embarrassing blunders, Biden has confused world leaders, including Ukraine's and Russia's, and even Vice President Kamala Harris for former President Donald Trump.
During public appearances, Biden has been seen freezing, stumbling over sentences, and even walking off alone, raising concerns about his cognitive abilities.
Trump's team weighs in
President-Elect Trump's team has also weighed in on the issue of the Israeli hostage deal, appointing former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee as the new Israeli ambassador. Huckabee, a staunch supporter of Israel, has advocated for peace in the Middle East and emphasized the US's support for Israel.
Following the meeting, Israeli President Herzog expressed hope for progress on the hostage deal in the near future, highlighting the commitment to moving forward.
