A video of Vice President Kamala Harris’ reaction to President Joe Biden’s gaffe during his State of the Union address is making its rounds online.
During his speech, Biden said, “Putin may circle Kyiv with tanks, but he’ll never gain the hearts and souls of the Iranian people.”
Harris then appeared to mouth “Ukrainian” to correct Biden’s mix-up.
Twitter users were quick to weigh in on the comments:
Biden opened his speech calling out Russia’s “lies” amid its invasion of Ukraine, as IJR reported.
Calling President Vladimir Putin’s attack “premeditated and totally unprovoked,” Biden added, “He rejected repeated efforts at diplomacy.”
He said Putin believed “the West and NATO wouldn’t respond. And he thought he could divide us at home. … Putin was wrong. We are ready. We are united and that’s what we did. We stayed united. We prepared.”
Biden added, “We prepared extensively and carefully. We spent months building a coalition of other freedom-loving nations from Europe and the Americas to Asia and Africa to confront Putin.”
