As the nation sits waiting for President Joe Biden’s “Big Boy” press conference live from the NATO summit in Washington, D.C., to begin, it was announced that the start time has now been pushed back to 7 P.M. Eastern.
The press conference was initially scheduled for 5:30 P.M. Eastern, then pushed back to 6:30 P.M. After Biden made a major flub, introducing Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky as “President Putin” that start time was pushed back to 7 P.M:
President Biden’s press conference here this evening is now estimated to be around 7 p.m.
