Politician's Oath-Taking Blunder Goes Viral

A humorous yet slightly awkward moment occurred during a recent hearing of the French National Assembly's inquiry committee investigating TikTok's impact on minors. Alex Hitchens, while taking the oath, raised his left hand instead of his right. The incident, captured on video by Brut, quickly spread online. "It was a bit of a slip-up," Hitchens later commented, acknowledging his mistake. The committee members reacted with a mixture of amusement and understanding. The incident serves as a lighthearted reminder of the pressures of high-profile hearings. The video's popularity underscores the public's interest in the TikTok inquiry and the personalities involved.
