Then Joe Biden forgot the name of Ukraine, said- Putin is losing the war in Iraq

New Delhi: US President Joe Biden said in a verbal blunder on Wednesday that Russian President Vladimir Putin is clearly losing the war in Iraq. Actually, he was speaking about the Ukraine war. He said during a press conference, ‘Vladimir Putin is clearly losing the war in Iraq. He is losing the war in his own house. And he has become a kind of untouchable all over the world. And it’s not just NATO, it’s not just the European Union, it’s Japan, you know it’s 40 nations.’

Recently, the US Department of Defense has announced an additional security assistance package of up to US$500 million to Ukraine to meet its ‘critical security and defense needs’. The security package includes critical capabilities to support Ukraine’s counter-offensive operations in its ongoing conflict with Russia and strengthen its air defenses. Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the United States has condemned all of Moscow’s actions and shown strong support for Ukraine and its people.

A week earlier, Antony Blinken also noted the US commitment to working with the private sector to enable the modernization and revitalization of Ukraine. At least four people, including a child, were killed and several others injured when a Russian missile hit a bustling center of Kramatorsk in eastern Ukraine on Tuesday, CNN quoted local officials as saying. According to Pavlo Kirilenko, head of the military administration of the Donetsk region, the attacks took place at around 7:30 pm local time on Tuesday.

“We are now working to establish the number of injured and possibly dead in the city,” he said. This is the center of the city. These were public eateries full of citizens. Ukraine’s Interior Minister Ihor Klimenko said in Telegram comments that ‘Russia deliberately targeted populated areas.’ Immediately after the attack, emergency services rushed to the scene to help the injured. Let us inform that thousands of lives have been lost in the Russia-Ukraine war which started on February 24, 2022. Ukrainian President Zelensky expressed his gratitude to US President Joe Biden for a new package of security assistance worth up to $500 million.
