In November 2024, a video was spread on the Web, on which US President Joe Bayden, after his performance in the jungle of the Amazon in Brazil, turned and went into the forest. We checked whether this video is true.
On November 18, 2024, the media began to appear in the media headlines It seems “Bayden went into the forests of the Amazon” or “went to the jungle - Joe Bayden became the hero of memes after a speech in Brazil.” Similar articles published "Gazeta.ru" Lenta.ru, "Moscow Komsomolets","Vesti.ru"And many other media.

November 17, 2024, American President Joe Biden arrived in Brazil, and then became The first acting American president to visit the tropical forests of the Amazon. The White House of the United States described This visit as part of the heritage that the Biden administration will leave in the fight against climate change. The trip was of symbolic significance, given that with the advent of the elected President Donald Trump, the advent of the elected house, probably sharply Change their ecological policy. In Brazil Biden He made a speech And signed Processing on the International Day of Nature Protection.
During the short visit In Manus, squeezed between participation in the APEC summites in Lima and the “big twenty” in Rio de Janeiro, Biden gave a press conference held in the open air in the forests of the Amazon. In the 14-second video, which spread on the Internet, it is clear how, at the end of his speech, Biden waved his hand to the journalists, turned and went towards the forest. If you limit yourself to watching this short video opening, really, you may have the impression that the president behaved not quite adequately.
Nevertheless, on the same day Internet archive Laid The expanded version of the broadcast, which came out the air of the American C-Span television channel. In full broadcast, you can notice that before the start of Biden's speech (At the mark 0:47), of the very “jungle” to which the US president headed, a man comes out. And a few minutes later in a friend of the video It can be seen how Biden steps along the same path of the same “jungle” and approaches the microphone.
However, the media and social networks pulled out a video clip from the context and distorted the news about Bayden's performance in the jungle of the Amazon. One of the first to shared a cropped roller was a conservative account on the social network X with a nickname End WokeNess (6.3 million views). On November 17, at 20:52 Moscow time, a Biden video appeared there with the signature: "The President of the United States has just gone into the forests of the Amazon?" The next day, the news in a similar vein was also presented in the Russian media. Many of them Quoted article The Telegraph: "Darn by an open collar, dark trousers, in his branded sunglasses of aviator glasses, the 81-year-old departing president of the United States turned away from the rostrum and headed into the forests." In Telegram, the video for the most part spread with the signature "Biden Epically went into the tropical forest of the Amazon after allowing Ukraine to beat rockets in Russia."
Thus, the news of Joe Bayne, who allegedly left for the jungle, was torn out of context. If you look at the full video of the direct broadcast, it becomes obvious that the American president was heading where he had come from before, that is, to the path hidden from the camera.
