It was a statement of observable fact. Not sure of the day but recently JB confused Libya with Syria three times and AFAIK never did get it right. They are not even on the same continent.

I am assuming it is because there are many areas of disagreement and that they have not had a true meeting of the minds.
Certainly we would not want to move in Putin's direction.

I think the obvious answer is that Putin will use the opportunity to humiliate Biden and the United States. Putting has expressed his thoughts on Biden on several occasions and none of the has been good.

The question in the title was answered, but apparently it's easier for some people to question Biden's mental health or even mock him than it is to conduct a simple Google search to find the answer.
Here's an excerpt from the article: Why Biden and Putin won't hold a joint press conference.
The decision to not hold a joint press conference was something for which White House officials had pushed. Officials have said Russia pushed for a joint press conference during negotiations about the summit. But the US resisted because they did not want to give Putin a platform like he had after a 2018 summit with former President Donald Trump in Helsinki.
Officials said they were mindful of Putin's desire to appear like he'd gotten the better of a US president, and wanted to avoid a situation that devolved into a tit-for-tat playing out in public.
The decision also comes at the advice of a group of Russia experts who met with the President earlier this month, according to sources familiar with the discussion.
"This is not a contest about who can do better in front of a press conference or try to embarrass each other," Biden said on Sunday, explaining the decision.
The US-Russia talks are expected to take place at a lakeside villa in Switzerland and last around five hours or longer, according to a US official. Despite their lengthy agenda, the leaders are not expected to break bread.

Do you mean he just used the wrong name for the country he was talking about?
Such as if I said my grandson Aaron play a mean game of baseball yesterday, he made 2 home runs and pitched 3 no-hit innings. But it wasn't Aaron it was actually Seth, I knew it was Seth but I mixed up their names. I wasn't paying attention to their names but what Seth actually did.

A weak answer is still a better answer than what anyone here could provide you with.

After trump met with Putin, I doubt Joe trusts the translators. I certainly wouldn't. Plus, Putin doesn't deserve a seat at our presidents table after hacking into hundreds of American businesses and our government. Respect has to be earned!

He doesn't merit a shared press conference or a shared meal.

That is an interesting point. When will they release the transcripts from their meeting?

He quoted "We" not "He". "We didn't think it was necessary"
