Russian President Vladimir Putin knows Joe Biden’s weakness. And on Thursday, he retaliated against the U.S. President by offering a challenge that Biden is unlikely to accept: A live television debate.
The unfriendly offer comes after Biden labeled Putin a “killer†in a sit-down interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that aired Wednesday. Biden also promised that Putin will “pay a price†for election meddling.
“He will pay a price. We had a long talk, he and I, I know him relatively well,†Biden said. “And the conversation started off, I said, ‘I know you and you know me. If I establish this occurred, then be prepared.’â€
Asked by Stephanopoulos about his remark that he ‘did not believe the Russian president had a soul,’ Biden doubled down on the claim.
“I did say that to him, yes, and his response was, ‘We understand one another.’ I wasn’t being a wise guy, I was alone with him in his office and that’s how it came about,†he said.
On Thursday, Putin replied with what some are perceiving as a ‘veiled threat.’
