During a summit in Angola with African leaders, President Joe Biden, 82, appeared to fall asleep while Vice-President Philip Mpango of Tanzania spoke. Despite wearing a translation earpiece, all participants spoke English. This incident occurred on the last day of Biden’s first African visit since 2021. Biden has faced criticism for appearing tired at international events, attributed to his age and demanding travel schedule. Previously, he acknowledged struggling with international travel demands, impacting his performance in debates and summits, leading to the “Sleepy Joe” nickname.
