Biden gaffe at G-7 summit sparks laughter from world leaders – By Bruce Golding (New York Post) / June 14 2021
President Biden embarrassed himself at the G-7 summit when he tried to correct British Prime Minister Boris Johnson for not introducing “the president of South Africa” — even though Johnson already did so by name.
The blooper — one of several Biden made amid the series of meetings with world leaders — prompted laughter at his expense at the start of a roundtable discussion in Cornwall, England.
The awkward incident took place on Saturday, according to Sky News, which posted a video clip and a transcript online.
After mentioning how the visiting dignitaries had brought “some pretty spectacular weather with them,” Johnson introduced Indian President Narendra Modi, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa and South Korean President Moon Jae-in.
