'Shush up': Biden about debt limit talks
Joe Biden told a reporter to "shush up" after being hit with a barrage of questions about America's debt ceiling crisis while meeting Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese in Japan.
The US President was first quizzed on how concerned he was about the debt talks back in America to which he replied "not at all".
Reporters continued to pepper Biden with questions, such as whether Republicans were negotiating in good faith to avoid America defaulting on its $31.4 trillion debt.
"It goes in stages, I've been in these negotiations before. It started off... Shush up, okay? Thank you," Biden said.
"It goes in stages," he then reiterated. "And what happens is the first meetings weren't all that progressive, the second ones were, the third one was," he continued.
"I still believe we'll be able to avoid a default and we'll get something decent done."
Further questions put to Biden were ignored, as they always are.
