Russian President Vladimir Putin recently criticized Joe Biden for his recent harsh remarks about bilateral ties.
In a statement Thursday, Putin proposed direct talks with Biden to address any grievances that Washington may have about Russia. The Russian leader said Biden’s recent remarks were not very diplomatic, adding they may reflects America’s own problems.
His remarks came after Biden suggested Putin is a “killer” and said Russia would pay a price amid the latest attempts to revive the Russia hoax. Mainstream media has falsely claimed that Russia reacted “angrily” to Biden’s statement. In realty, however, Moscow has insisted on mutual diplomacy.
