The gaffe comes after Joe Biden accidentally introduced Ukraine's leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy as President Putin, amid intense focus on the US president's health.

Joe Biden has batted away questions about his fitness for office in a highly-anticipated press conference, saying he is the most qualified person to run for United States president, after mistakenly referring to the Ukrainian leader as "President Putin" and rival Donald Trump as "vice-president".

"And now I want to hand it over to the president of Ukraine, who has as much courage as he has determination, ladies and gentlemen, President Putin," Biden said, referring to Zelenskyy, before realising his error and correcting himself. "Going to beat President Putin, President Zelenskyy. I am so focused on beating Putin," Biden added. Biden is facing calls by members of his own party to drop out of the race ahead of this year's presidential election.
