US President Joe Biden is highly gaffe-prone. In the last one year, the leader has made several mistakes.
Be it the tongue slip ups or falling asleep, the president seems to be making headlines for one or the other mistake, every now and then. Several of these mistakes have gone viral.
Let’s revisit some of the memorable ones.
'President Harris'
While delivering a speech at South Carolina State University during its 2021 Fall commencement ceremony, Biden referred to US Vice President Kamala Harris as “President Harris”. The US President said, “… all kidding aside, of course, President Harris, who’s a proud Howard alumn, she might have something to say about Delaware State.”

In speech gaffe, Biden says 'Iranian' people instead of Ukrainian
United States President Joe Biden referred to Ukrainian people as Iranians while criticising Russian aggression during his first State of the Union address on March 2.
"Putin may circle Kyiv with tanks, but he'll never gain the hearts and souls of the Iranian people,” Biden said during his address. “He’ll never, he’ll never extinguish their love of freedom. And he will never, never weaken the resolve of the free world.”
