George W. Bush makes unfortunate Iraq gaffe when condemning Putin's Ukraine invasion
Fox News
Former President George W. Bush made an eye-catching gaffe mentioning Iraq while condemning Russian President Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine.
"In contrast, Russian elections are rigged," he said. "Political opponents are imprisoned or otherwise eliminated from participating in the electoral process. The result is an absence of checks and balances in Russia and the decision of one man to launch a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq. I mean of Ukraine."
Bush shrugged and said, under his breath, "Iraq, too." Russia has not invaded Iraq, and the Kremlin reportedly gave Saddam Hussein's government intelligence to combat the U.S. invasion early on.
