President Joe Biden, during a recent press conference at the NATO summit in Washington, made headlines for a slip of the tongue.
The 81-year-old introduced Ukrainian President Zelensky but accidentally referred to him as President Putin. Zelensky chuckled at the mistake.
Biden quickly corrected himself, acknowledging Zelensky and expressing his focus on countering Putin. This incident, along with previous instances of verbal slips, has sparked discussions about Biden's health, especially as speculation about his candidacy in the upcoming presidential elections continues.
While some leaders, like German Chancellor Olaf Schulz, downplayed it as a common occurrence, others have raised concerns about Biden's age-related challenges.
