The British newspaper “The Independent” published a video clip of British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, responding during a parliamentary session to a question from a member of parliament about US President Donald Trump.
Johnson made a mistake in describing Trump, whose term expires at noon on January 20, when he responded by saying, “I have good relations with the former president … and this is a requirement of every British prime minister to have good relations with the House. Blanca, and in return, I’m excited to work. ” With the new administration led by Joe Biden and Kamala Harris “, in response to a question from Angela Eagle, a Labor MP.
The legislator asked Johnson, saying that if Trump refused to admit defeat, what was the best advice he could give his best friend?
The Independent claimed that despite Trump’s defeat in the US presidential election by his Democratic rival, Joe Biden, he could be described as the president until the January 20 handover date.
Johnson posted the message on Twitter on Saturday after television networks in the United States and other countries declared former Democratic Vice President Joe Biden the winner.
Acting President Donald Trump refuses to accept the election result and has launched a series of lawsuits in certain states, challenging the results.
The British Prime Minister’s message read: “Congratulations to Joe Biden on his election as President of the United States and to Kamala Harris on his historic achievement.”
The message continues: “The United States is our most important ally and I look forward to working closely on our shared priorities, from climate change to trade and security.”
But the message seemed to have the effects of a different message referring to Trump, who has held the presidency since 2017.
A British government spokesman said: “As is to be expected, two statements were prepared in advance in response to the outcome of these elections, which were very close.”
The British government blamed a “technical error” for the name “Trump” faintly appearing in the background of a tweet by Prime Minister Boris Johnson congratulating Joe Biden on winning the US election.
Social media users commented on the contradiction, while Guido Fox said the message also included the phrase “second term” embedded in it.
British officials said two letters were prepared before the result was known.
They added that the alternate message “overlapped” with the other message by mistake.
