Joe Biden batted away questions about his fitness for office in a highly-anticipated press conference, saying he is the most qualified person to run for United States president, after mistakenly referring to the Ukrainian leader as "President Putin" and his rival Donald Trump as his "vice-president."
Biden addressed reporters on a wide range of topics on the sidelines of the NATO summit in Washington DC, in what was billed as a high-stakes news conference on Friday morning. [sbs.com]
Biden and his supporters hoped his performance would ease fears about the 81-year-old's age and mental acuity, BUT...
- When asked whether he had any concerns about vice-president Kamala Harris' ability to beat Donald Trump if she ran for the top job, Biden said: "I wouldn't have picked Vice-President Trump to be vice-president if I didn't think she was qualified to be president.
- "I'm tested every single day about my neurological capacity to the decisions I make, every day," he added.
- "And 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, referring to Zelenskyy, before realizing his error and correcting himself. Zelensky laughed outloud.
