President Joe Biden seemingly wander off at the G7 summit in Italy, with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni needing to pull him back to focus.
HOW HE WANDERED
As world leaders applauded a parachuting presentation, Biden, 81, could be seen trailing off and stepping away from the group, appearing to talk to an officer packing a parachute.
Meloni, who is hosting the Group of Seven meeting of world leaders, then pulled back the US president to get his attention so he could rejoin the group.
The rest of the leaders then awkwardly moved to center themselves around Biden for a photo op.
Biden slowly slipped on his signature sunglasses for the picture.
Afterward, he walked toward one of the parachutists, shook his hand and saluted him, video shows.
Then other leaders joined him in shaking the hands of the other jumpers.

BIDEN SALUTED MELONI
Hours earlier, Biden had a strange introduction to Meloni, saluting her as he arrived at the venue in southern Puglia.
The president shuffled in and the two embraced and talked for a moment.
Meloni directed him to his place on the stage, at which point he raised his right hand in a salute to her and walked away.
