Russia recalls ambassador to U.S. for "consultations" after Biden calls Putin a "killer"
Yahoo News, Mar 17, 2021, Axios
Russia's ambassador to Washington has been recalled to Moscow for "consultations" to determine how to move forward with relations with the U.S., the Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement Wednesday.
Why it matters: The news came hours after an interview aired in which President Biden agreed that Russian President Vladimir Putin is a "killer" and pledged to hold the Kremlin accountable for interfering in the 2020 election.
•Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova did not provide specific reasons for the recall of Ambassador Anatoly Antonov, but she said relations with the U.S. "are in a difficult state, which Washington has brought to a dead end in recent years."
•“We are interested in preventing their irreversible degradation, if the Americans are aware of the associated risks,†Zakharova added.
Driving the news: The U.S. intelligence community released a report on Tuesday assessing that Putin authorized influence operations aimed at denigrating President Biden and supporting former President Trump in the 2020 election. The Kremlin has denied the allegations.

FFS ... we're back to Russia.

Perhaps Slow Joe meant to compliment Vlad's "killer" abs.

Putin responded with "it takes one to know one." Maybe Vlad has something to share with the rest of the class?

"I wish you health. I say that without any irony or joke..."
“I remember in my childhood, when we argued in the courtyard with each other we used to say: it takes one to know one."

Putin apparently didn't pony up enough for the Biden Family Trust.
You'll notice Biden isn't saying nasty things about Xi, Vlad.

How much longer will Joe fulfill the 'live' part of the equation?
-
As I understand it, Joe only responded affirmatively to Snuffleuffagus' question whether he considered Putin a killer, he didn't come up with the comment from his own empty head. So why did Georgie ask such a stupid question? :pondering:
