Biden: "H...hel...hello? C... can... can you hear me?!"

Putin: "You need to unmute yourself. It's the button with the microphone."

Biden: Putin don't invade Ukraine
Putin: what is Ukraine?
Biden: your neighbor
Putin: oh is Russia now
Biden: c'mon man

[marting.]

Please guys, be cool... forget the red button...

[SuhandiWijaya]

Putin was like, meh, let me talk to your master instead.

[karenrollins]

It seems like that conference only amounted to Biden repeating the same sentence

I have nothing but respect for old people, since we all going to get there one day. BUT, when an old person is the President of United States who has zero clue how to flush a toilet, let alone run a nation, I have a SERIOUS problem with that.

[Xdddd]

Putin trolling in style... Love this guy😆

[obewiththeforce]

These smiles are far from comforting I'm sure he knows

It was Brandon's make a wish to meet a real leader before he kicks the bucket

I won’t be surprised If Mr Putin Understands and speaks English language just well #KGBways and just uses translators to have a ride 😂😂😂 Big Man and Personality he’s got

[kess]

Putin is calm. Biden is just old, God help!

[cfrasier]

No sane human would want war, especially those of us who have fought in one, or more. These politicians don’t know, unless they’ve fought. There are very few things one would risk their life for.

[luisalfonsoalba]

And nothing else went on. BIDEN falls asleep

[imasavageyeahhh]

The fact that most of the people of both countries don't really care and can get along just well except for their governments is sad cuz if a war did escalate those people I'm talking about would end up as casualties or collateral damage.

the jokes afterward must be great after having to sit down with the potato brandon.

Did Biden really introduced him twice with pretty much the exact choice of words..?

[BigShnarff]

When Brandon says he wants to meet Putin in person, you can see Putin is thinking... Um how about not! Lol 😂

[Kyle-xkrb]

I thought the meeting was confidential or something

[DrTarentaal]

Putin speaks Russian, German and English very well. What a badass to get a translator 🤣
