U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio had an awkward moment during a key diplomatic meeting in India when his microphone stopped working, leaving him unable to be heard by top diplomats. The problem was quickly fixed by U.S. Ambassador to India Sergio Gor, who stepped in and turned the mic on.
According to The Daily Beast, the incident happened during Rubio’s speech at the Quad foreign ministers’ meeting in New Delhi. The meeting brought together the foreign ministers of Australia, India, Japan, and the U.S. to discuss important global issues. But Rubio’s microphone trouble quickly became the main talking point of the event.
