Putin painstakingly puzzled after Macron speech cut in Climate Summit glitch shambles

Macron speech cut leaving Putin puzzled leading to a huge awkward silence at Climate Summit after a glitch confused both world leaders.

Russian President Vladimir Putin was caught off guard by technical issues at the online U.S. climate summit on Thursday as he tried to give his speech.

After being asked to make his address, Putin was seen sitting at his desk and looking around.

Taken by surprise by the moment of silence, one of the hosts of the event, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, gave the floor to Putin and after some more silence, the Russian president was able to start his speech.

U.S. President Joe Biden is hosting the two-day virtual climate change summit, in which the United States hopes to restore its shattered credibility on global warming, amid international concerns that America's commitment to a clean energy economy can shift drastically from one administration to the next.

Biden invited 40 world leaders to discuss new measures to strengthen commitments they made to reduce emissions under the Paris climate agreement.
