Ukraine's leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he can 'forget' Joe Biden's gaffe where he referred to him as 'President Putin'

Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the President of Ukraine, mentioned that he is willing to overlook Joe Biden's mistake of calling him "President Putin".

The President of the United States made a mistake on Thursday during a NATO summit in Washington DC, and shortly afterwards, in another well-known blunder, he mistakenly called his Vice President, Kamala Harris, "Vice President Trump" during a press conference.

During a trip to Ireland on Saturday, Mr. Zelenskyy was questioned about Mr. Biden's slip-up with Putin. He responded to reporters by stating, "It was an error. I believe the United States has provided much support to Ukrainians. We can overlook some mistakes, I believe."

New commitments were made for air defense assistance, such as Patriot missile systems and F-16 fighter aircraft.
