As US President Joe Biden took the podium to address the nation in his first State of the Union speech, he stood in solidarity with the Ukrainians against Russian aggression.
Iranians trended on Twitter not just in the US but around the world after, in the slip of tongue, Biden said “Iranians” instead of “Ukrainians” during his speech to the US Congress.
The mistake was caught instantly by almost everyone, not just by those watching Biden speak on television but also inside the hall.
As jokes and memes took over, people sarcastically claimed Putin can never win the hearts of the “Iranian people”.
Fake News, he said Uranian not Iranian, they man is 79, up all hrs dealing with the biggest crisis in decades and overcame a stutter.
Beginning his address on Tuesday, Biden asked lawmakers in the House chamber to stand and salute the Ukrainians as he began his speech with Ukraine’s ambassador to the US present as a guest of first lady Jill Biden.
