On the same day Harris made the gaffe, the DPRK reportedly launched a ballistic missile towards the Sea of Japan.
US Vice President Kamala Harris made a verbal gaffe during her visit to the Korean Demilitarized Zone that serves as a buffer between North and South Korea.
In her speech, Harris named Pyongyang instead of Seoul as an ally of the US, apparently by mistake.
“So the United States shares a very important relationship, which is an alliance with the republic of North Korea,” she proclaimed.
Harris’ gaffe amused quite a few social media users, with former US diplomat Alberto Miguel Fernandez tweeting: “Evidently we switched sides in Korea under the Biden Administration and nobody told us.”
“Unlike her boss, she can't claim advanced old age as a defense,” he added, referring to US President Joe Biden.
Meanwhile, North Korea launched a ballistic missile towards the Sea of Japan on Thursday, the same day Harris made her blunder, Yonhap news agency reported.
