US President Joe Biden denies memory loss

A special council in the United States has reignited speculation about Biden’s memory.

The US President Joe Biden was found to have “wilfully retained and disclosed classified materials” but will not face charges. The report containing this finding was written by a special council and it reignited speculations about the President’s memory loss. The council said he came across as an “elderly man with a poor memory”.
