Biden Twice Talked About Meeting Dead European Leaders

“President Joe Biden on Wednesday twice referred to the late German chancellor Helmut Kohl instead of former Chancellor Angela Merkel while detailing a 2021 conversation at campaign events,” NBC News reports.

“It was the second time this week that Biden had recalled speaking with a European leader who had died years earlier.”

“Speaking at an event in North Las Vegas, Nevada, on Sunday, Biden confused François Mitterrand, the former French president who died in 1996, for French President Emmanuel Macron in retelling an encounter with the French leader at a summit during his first year in office.”
