Some world leaders were often exposed to embarrassing situations, recorded by newspapers and documented by cameras.

These events are made up of insects, birds, pets and savages.

Among these situations are funny events, starring a fly that defied former US President Barack Obama, another fly that mocked Mike Pence, former Vice President Donald Trump, and stole the spotlight from him, a bird that urinated on the jacket of former US President George Bush, and a monkey that urinated on the jacket of an African president , and a dog that raised terror and fear in the heart of German Chancellor, Angela Merkel.

Obama defeats the fly with a judge

The former president, Barack Obama, was at a press conference at the White House on June 7, 2009 when a fly landed on him, harassing him and diverting his attention away from what he was giving reporters, but the president showed ingenuity in impressive hand-eye coordination and kept watching it silently She lands on his hand before he quickly hits her and kills her with his other hand.

After killing her, he turned toward the audience, saying, 'That was impressive, wasn't it?

I defeated her.”

Then Obama pointed to the dead fly, and sarcastically told reporters, "Do you want to film the fly, it's there?"

A fly steals the spotlight from Pines

During a live talk by former Vice President Mike Pence, prior to the 2020 election, viewers saw a fly flying over his head and then landing on him, and remaining there for two minutes, which was enough to divert attention from what Pence was talking about, and Pence seemed oblivious or perhaps pretended to do so, and remained This moment will be remembered forever because of what some called "Flygate" in reference to the famous "Watergate" scandal.

That ridiculous, bone-chilling moment resulted in endless sarcasm, jokes, and hot, sarcastic moments.

Social media users have compared Obama's handling of the White House fly with Pence's negative reaction to it.

A fly attacks the White House press secretary

It seems that no one in the White House is safe from the White House flies. The White House press secretary, Jen Psaki, was confronted with a fly during a press conference in late June.

Psaki was trying to answer a question from White House Correspondent Peter Alexander on NBC News about whether leaving billions of dollars in US military equipment to the Taliban would make America less safe.

She tried to answer the question, but became distracted by this stray insect that attacked her.

Saki hit the bug and then apologized for interrupting.

"Sorry, this appears to be an aggressive insect," she said.

But it seems that Saki did not lose focus, as she finally answered the reporter's question.

A bird urinates on George Bush

President of the United States George W. Bush received an unwelcome gift from a bird flying over his head in the Rose Garden of the White House, which dumped its excrement on the left sleeve of Bush's suit, when he was addressing on May 25, 2007 the American press in a nationally televised broadcast .

Alboraz signed Bush's suit when he said, "I have confidence in the Gonzales - then-Attorney General - to do the job," referring to a reporter's question about his controversial firing of several US attorneys general.

Bush tried to remove the bird droppings several times with his hand, but to no avail.

Deputy Press Secretary Dana Perino said that "poo" is a sign of good luck. "It was the president's lucky day," she said. "Everyone knows that this is a sign of good luck."

Monkey peeing on the Zambian president's suit

In a first, a monkey urinated on former Zambian President Rupiah Banda while speaking to reporters at a press conference in the capital Lusaka on June 24, 2008. Panda looked up and shouted at the monkey, "You urinated on my jacket, monkey!" He paused and looked at the animal. He is playing in a tree right above his chair.

“I will serve this monkey roast for lunch to Mr. Sata,” Panda joked, referring to opposition leader Michael Sata, who defeated Panda in last year's election.

Then Rubia added, "Perhaps these are blessings," and continued his speech amid cracks of laughter from the audience of journalists and diplomats at the presidential headquarters.

Snake kicks out Liberian president

A crowd of soldiers may not be able to expel the president from his workplace in a coup, but the Liberian president, George Weah, fled his office on the 19th of April 2019 from his office and was forced to work from his own home after a black snake was found in the State Department building where the office is located President.

The press secretary for the President's office, Toby Smith, said that the relevant authorities have asked all employees to stay away until April 22.

"This is just to make sure that the crawling animals are cleared of the building."

"The State Department hosts the president's office, so it has issued an internal memo asking employees to stay home while disinfecting," he said.

The president's office has been in the State Department since a 2006 fire broke out in the adjacent presidential palace.

'Snakes are never killed,' said Toby. 'They are put away, and there is a den here through which some of them came back here.'

French President's dog urinating on the fireplace in the Elysee Palace

Three ministers were talking with French President Emmanuel Macron about investing in the city on October 22, 2017, when they heard what looked like flowing water behind them, and when Macron and his ministers turned behind them to find the dog had finished urinating in the heater.

"Does that happen often?" asked President and Assistant Secretary of State Julien Denor-Mande, and Macron laughed: "You have accused my dog ​​of completely unusual behaviour."

French presidents' dogs are often photographed regularly to post pictures of themselves next to their owners, and these dogs do not feel comfortable with the lifestyle at the Elysee Palace.

The dogs of the former president, Nicolas Sarkozy, caused a lot of damage to the historical furniture of the Elysee Palace.

Former President Jacques Chirac got rid of his white Maltese dog, after he became too depressed to leave the presidential palace.

Merkel is terrified of Putin's dog

Some media circles are talking about German Chancellor Angela Merkel's fear of dogs, and that this fear has been rooted in her since she was bitten by a dog in 1995. Did Russian President Vladimir Putin take advantage of this fear to score some points on the Chancellor in their first and most important meeting at the Sochi resort Russian?

This is what Putin talked about in his last interview with the German newspaper Bild.

Some media accounts claim that Putin deliberately paraded his dog in front of Merkel at that 2007 meeting, despite being notified by his staff about the chancellor's fear of dogs. Journalists say that Merkel was clearly upset when the dog entered the meeting room and tried to hide her fear, as the pictures reflect, especially when the dog first went to her to sniff her and sit next to her. It is a deposit.” "No, she won't eat journalists," Merkel replied, trying to relieve herself, smiling, cross-legged, her hands tightly clasped to her chest, and shrunk to hide her fear of all things dog-related. The dog, who died in 2014 at the age of 15, was a gift from the current Minister of Defense, Sergei Shoigu, in 2000.

This is not the first time that Putin's dogs play a role in international diplomacy. Former US President George W. Bush recounted that he showed his dog Barney to Putin during his visit to the White House, and when Bush visited Moscow, Putin showed him one of his dogs and commented: He is "bigger, stronger, and faster than Barney," and Bush concluded from Putin's comment that the latter does not believe in appeasement.

However, two days ago, Putin denied, in an interview with the German newspaper Bild, that he used the dog for political purposes during his meeting with the German chancellor, and assured the newspaper, “I did not know anything about that, Merkel seemed honest and professional, and in all I think that the trust between us is very great.” Putin adds that he showed her his dog, thinking that she liked dogs, and when he later learned that she was afraid of her, he apologized to her.

Putin is known for his love of dogs, and is often spotted on camera playing with them.
