{International: Al Furat News} The US President, Joe Biden, did not speak of himself during his first press conference at the White House after his accession to the presidency
And the media monitored pictures, from a side angle, of Biden’s reliance on what it called “cheat papers”, including pictures and names of journalists who were planning to give them an opportunity to ask questions, according to what was reported by the British newspaper “Daily Mail”.
The papers included quick information points, including that the United States ranks thirteenth in the list of global infrastructure quality, after it was ranked fifth in 2002.
Despite these cards, which were written in bold type, Biden made a mistake, saying that Washington ranks 85th in the world in infrastructure, before correcting himself.
On Thursday, the conference was the first of its kind for the US president since he entered the White House on January 20, and was limited to the participation of 25 journalists.
The Washington Post reported that Biden only took questions from the journalists whose names he read on the “cheat cards.”
The American newspaper’s interview suggests that Biden faced easy questions at the press conference.
The American network “CNN” published a video showing one of its correspondence posing a “tough question” to Biden about his stance on the political stalling in the passage of some laws in Congress.
Although this practice is common in the US Parliament, Biden saw it as an excessive use.
He agreed that this practice, called filibuster, belonged to the “Jim Crow” era of racism in the nineteenth century.
Here, the journalist asked him another question: Why did he not move to cancel it?
Biden was silent for a while and looked at the papers in front of him, before saying that electoral politics was the art of the possible.
