Video | George Bush confuses Iraq with Ukraine when speaking of “unjustified invasions” | on video

Former US President George W. Bush has confused the invasion of Iraq with that of Ukraine, referring to a “brutal” and “unjustified” war during an event in Dallas on Wednesday. The former president was in the middle of criticizing Russia’s political system when he made the mistake: “One man’s decision to launch a totally unjustified and brutal invasion of Iraq. I mean, from Ukraine.” Bush blamed the mistake on age: “I’m 75 years old.” This confusion has caused some laughter among the audience. This former leader was in charge of leading the invasion of Iraq in 2003.
