A video of NATO leaders reacting to Joe Biden mistakenly introducing Volodymyr Zelensky as "President Putin" during a NATO summit in Washington D.C. on Thursday has gone viral on social media, where he's been viewed over 880,000 times.
Standing on a stage with 23 other world leaders, the Democratic president talked about the importance of securing Ukraine's future and helping the country fight Russia's aggressione, before welcoming Zelensky on stage.
"Now, I want to hand over to the President of Ukraine, who has as much courage as he has determination," Biden said. Then he added: "Ladies and gentlemen: President Putin."
While some leaders started clapping and others remained motionless, Biden returned to the microphone to acknowledge his mistake. "I'm so focused on beating Putin, we got to worry about it. Anyway," he said.
"I'm better," Zelensky intervened.
