US President Joe Biden has confused a European leader with a dead predecessor for the second time in a week, telling a campaign event he met Helmut Kohl four years after the German chancellor passed away.
The 81-year-old’s gaffe late on Feb 7 came days after he said he had spoken to long-dead French president Francois Mitterand, instead of current leader Emmanuel Macron, at the same Group of 7 summit in June 2021 where he said he had met Kohl.
Mr Biden, who is seeking reelection in November, often tells the same story about the summit held in the United Kingdom to illustrate what he says were global concerns about the Jan 6, 2021 attack on the US Capitol by supporters of former president Donald Trump.
