White House appears to scrub Biden gaffe from transcript after calling Afghan president wrong name
Fox News
The White House quietly corrected a gaffe President Biden made during his Thursday press conference in which he appeared to mix up the names of Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani and the controversial former head of Pakistan's military.
But the official White House transcript of the briefing now says "Ghani" instead of Kayani. Gen. Ashfaq Parvez Kayani departed the Pakistan military in 2013. In a retrospective on Kayani's leadership, The New York Times reported that Kayani was often accused of "double-dealing and bad faith."More Related News
