President #Biden accidentally says “#Iranian people” instead of “#Ukrainian people.”

Washington DC: In a slip of a tongue moment while calling for supporting Ukraine against a Russian invasion, US President Joe Biden mistakenly referred to the Ukrainians as ‘Iranian people’. ‘Putin may circle Kyiv with tanks, but he’ll never gain the hearts and souls of the Iranian people’, Biden said in his State of the Union speech that was an emotional appeal for putting up a united front against the Russian aggression.

The awkward moment of mistake immediately began trending on Twitter and other social media with the word ‘Iranian’.

Meanwhile, during his SOTU, President Biden has reiterated that his country will not deploy troops in Ukraine against the Russian forces. Condemning Russia’s ‘premeditated attack’ in Ukraine, Biden said that Russian President Vladimir Putin sought to shake the very foundation of the free world. President Biden further announced that the US will ban Russian aircrafts from US airspace, joining a growing number of countries that are closing their skies to Russia following President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.
