New York: The US President, Joe Biden, addressed the Global Fund's Seventh Replenishment Conference in New York on Wednesday. A video from the conference has gone viral on social media, showing Biden confused on stage.
As seen in the now-viral, the US President seems lost after addressing the audience. He is walking some steps towards the right and later returns towards the podium, wondering about his exit. Meanwhile, the event host takes over to thank the 79-year-old for his speech.
The leaders discussed the importance of continued support for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. They also affirmed their shared commitment to protect the gains of the Belfast/Good Friday Agreement.
