The President of the Haitian Presidential Transitional Council, Edgard Leblanc Fils, starred in an unusual scene while addressing the United Nations (UN) General Assembly, Thursday (26). While calling for nations to unite in support of peacekeeping efforts, Leblanc Fils clumsily drank water straight from a large jug.
The moment, captured on video, quickly went viral, generating a wave of cruel memes online. While some internet users mocked the situation, others defended the leader, highlighting that it was simply a human error.
Some defenders of Leblanc Fils argue that the situation is exaggerated and that if the jug was provided to him, there would be no problem in using it directly.
