During a summit with African leaders in Lobito, Angola, President Biden was seen on camera appearing to rest his eyes.
The 82-year-old president is seen resting his head and closing his eyes as Tazania’s vice president, Philip Mpango, speaks while seated in the center of a table with other African authorities.
For over a minute, Biden’s eyes stayed closed. Other than that, he was attentive and made comments both before and after the short time.
A request for comment was not immediately answered by the White House.
Joe Biden, the president, lays his gaze
The president appeared to have fallen asleep, according to a number of social media analysts.
Clay Travis, founder of Outkick, said, “Joe Biden dozed off during a meeting with African leaders today.”
