Biden Introduces Zelensky As Putin At NATO Ceremony

US President Joe Biden, on Wednesday, accidentally introduced Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as Russian strongman Vladimir Putin at a NATO ceremony.

Osun Defender reports that Biden has been under intense scrutiny over his fitness to serve since he debated with former President Donald Trump.

There have been calls from some quarters for Biden to step down but he has vowed to contest the upcoming poll.

“Now I want to hand it over to the president of Ukraine, who has as much courage as he has determination. Ladies and gentlemen, President Putin,” Biden said on Wednesday.

However, Biden quickly corrected himself, saying, “I’m so focused on beating President Putin, we’ve got to worry about it.”
