      A morphed photo showing United States President Joe Biden eating an ice cream cone in front of a take-away counter in Kyiv, Ukraine has gone viral on social media.

      The morphed image is being shared after his surprise visit to Ukraine on February 20, 2023, just days before the one-year anniversary of the Russian invasion that began last year on February 24, 2022.

      Biden made a surprise visit to Kyiv, Ukraine on Monday visiting the war-torn capital that has been under constant attack by the Russians since the invasion of the country. Biden was seen on the streets of the city walking along with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Several memes also started doing the rounds on social media after it became public that Biden was present in Kyiv.

      The photo of Biden having an ice cream outside a restaurant in Kyiv soon went viral with several sarcastic takes and many users actually falling for the morphed image.
