PNG PM hits back at Joe Biden after 'cannibals' remark

Papua New Guinea's Prime Minister James Marape has objected to US President Joe Biden's remarks implying his uncle was eaten by cannibals during WWII. Last week, President Biden claimed his uncle Ambrose "Bosie" Finnegan died after his plane crashed in an area close to PNG before suggesting he'd been eaten by cannibals. However, Pentagon records state the aircraft plunged into the Pacific off the coast of Papua New Guinea. PM Marape then admonished the President's "slip of the tongue" moment. "President Biden's remarks may have been a slip of the tongue; however, my country does not deserve to be labelled as such," PM Marape said in a statement on Sunday. "I urge President Biden to get the White House to look into cleaning up these remains of WWII so the truth about missing servicemen like Ambrose Finnegan can be put to rest."
