“Vaccination” instead of “escalation”, “Сloutin” instead of “Putin”. Joe Biden, familiar with verbal blunders, made a few of them while delivering a speech following the introduction of new anti-Russian sanctions.

–

Joe Biden’s speech following the announcements of new US sanctions against Russia was strewn with verbal slips. The President, who had already described himself as a “blundering machine”, was wrong in pronouncing the last name of his Russian counterpart… and not only.

“The United States is not seeking to launch a vaccine cycle… of escalation and conflict with Russia. We want a stable and predictable relationship “, launched the American head of state while recalling that if Russia continued to interfere in the internal affairs of his country he was” ready to take new measures to respond to them ” .

The sanctions were announced in connection with alleged cyber attacks and interference in the 2020 presidential election that Washington blames on Moscow.

Biden then made a new blunder correcting:

“I also made it clear to President Сlutin [sic] that the United States… Putin… is steadfast in its support for our allies and partners in Europe. ”

“Blundering machine”

Joe Biden is called “Blundering machine” for years by the media, a nickname he also calls himself.

In 2018, not yet a presidential candidate, he said during a visit to the University of Montana:

“I will be as direct as possible with you: I believe that I am the most qualified person in the country to be President”, this before adding: “I am a blunder machine.”

Similar slips were also made during and after his election campaign. He recently called Vice President Kamala Harris “President Harris”. He also had trouble remembering the name of Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin.
