New Delhi: At the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit in Uzbekistan, Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif had an embarrassing moment as he struggled to put up his earphone and eventually had to seek assistance from the staff.
A video of the incident is being shared widely on the internet, where Shehbaz Sharif is seen trying hard to put earphone but failing to do so.
After struggling for some seconds, Pak PM asks, “Can somebody help me?”
The awkward moment left the Pakistani PM red-faced while Russian President Vladimir Putin couldn’t hold his laughter and could be seen smiling softly. The two leaders were meeting in Uzbekistan, on the sidelines of SCO Summit.
This CrimeMinister is a constant embarrassment for Pakistan. Even President Putin had to eventually just laugh at this clumsy man. Pathetic. This is what conspirators wanted? To have by design a politician who would not only be a crook but also a pathetic apology for a PM? pic.twitter.com/mmEhLY7RZg
