TL;DR Summary

U.S. President Joe Biden mistakenly mixed up former German Chancellors Angela Merkel and the late Helmut Kohl during a recent campaign event, marking the second time in a week that he has confused European leaders. This follows a previous mix-up between French President Emmanuel Macron and the late François Mitterrand. Biden, known for public speaking gaffes, has made several other notable slips, including inaccurately stating Covid-19 death tolls and confusing conflicts in Ukraine and Iraq. Former President Donald Trump has also had his share of gaffes, including mixing up countries and political figures.
