Russian President Vladimir Putin has responded to Biden’s explosive Wednesday interview wherein he agreed with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that Putin is a “killer”. In his characteristic way of using his wry humor and wit to perhaps lighten the intensity of the situation and expose it as somewhat asinine, the Russian leader simply said that evaluating other countries “is like looking in a mirror”.
“I wish him good health” Putin quipped while noting the US president is likely just projecting, according to Russian state sources. “I say that without irony or joking.” Here’s what Putin said in context:
“It takes one to know one,” Putin said in televised remarks, using a saying from his childhood.
“That’s not just a children’s saying and a joke. There’s a deep psychological meaning in this.
“We always see in another person our own qualities and think that he is the same as us.”
Putin added that he wished Biden, 78, good health. “I’m saying this without irony, not as a joke.”
“When I was a kid, when we were arguing with each other in the playground, we used to say, ‘Whatever you say [about others] is what you are yourself,'” Putin explained.
The comments were made on national television Thursday, the day after Biden’s ABC News interview aired wherein Biden also asserted that Putin “doesn’t have a soul”.
Here’s the key controversial part of that interview that Putin is responding to:
Asked whether he believes Mr Putin is a “killer” in a pre-taped interview that aired on Wednesday, the president responded: “I do.”
“The price he’s going to pay, you’ll see shortly,” he said. Mr Biden recalled meeting Mr Putin, during which he reportedly told him that he “doesn’t have a soul”: “I wasn’t being a wise guy.”
“He looked back at me and said, ‘We understand each other’,” Mr Biden said.
“I know him relatively well,” Biden had introduced the comments with, and added that “the most important thing dealing with foreign leaders in my experience… is just know the other guy.”
Meanwhile amid the rapidly spiraling relations the Kremlin had recalled its ambassador to the United States late in the day Wednesday.
When pressed about Biden’s “killer” comments about Putin, Psaki tried to play it down:
At Wednesday’s press briefing, White House press secretary Jen Psaki declined to specify whether the president believes the Russian president, literally or metaphorically, is a killer.
“He’s not going to hold back in his direction communications [with Russia]. He’s not going to hold back publicly,” Psaki said.
And further on the recalling back home to Moscow of Russian ambassador to the US Anatoly Antonov, Psaki said the administration “is going to take a different approach in our relationship to Russia than the prior administration. …We are going to be straightforward and we are going to be direct in areas where we have concerns.”

Putin will be blamed for Biden pissing on himself. The real reason will be Joe’s increased dementia .
Calling a Russian Leader a killer isn’t a pejorative it is rather a compliment.
Well, I daresay American ‘leaders’ as killers gives Russia second place in today’s world.
….maybe
…maybe?
Iraq, Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, Yemen, Ukraine (yes, coup in Ukraine created by Obama, Nuland and….Biden) and that’s not counting South and Latin America….Nowhere is Russia even near the conflicts that have been created by American foreign policy.
Go explore the Wolfowitz doctrine for what is happening re American global domination…
The Demonization of Russia and the Smear Campaign Against Putin
In alignment with the Wolfowitz Doctrine, the Western, Zionist MSM (Mainstream Media) is constantly telling us how bad Russia is and how aggressive Putin is, yet the facts reveal otherwise. It’s easy to see the demonization of Russia and the smear campaign against Putin as desperate attempts of the Anglo-American NWO to control the information war and paint themselves as the victim instead of the aggressor.

Translated – Until Putin pays sleepy creepy joe a couple billion like china did then Russia will have to wait until comrade joe finishes his apple sauce.
Putin just laughs a lot when Biden is brought up in a conversation.
“As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.” H. L. Mencken
Isn’t it great, that the US finally has a credible, responsible, diplomatic president again?
All those feats that were missing in Trump.
Yup. Biden is sooo much better than Trump, especially if you like high gas prices, industry moving abroad, being overrun by millions of diseased illegals allowed to run free and a dementia patient with nuke codes. Biden is so great that thousands have lost jobs and now Russia is pulling ambassadors and N. Korea is again shooting off missiles and the bombing intensifies in Syria and the rest of the Middle East, yup, if you like blood shed, you will LOVE Biden.
Like Jeff Foxworthy might put it, “If you love Biden, you might be a neocon.”
If you love Biden you are definitely an idiot.
I’m thinking this is sarcasm, right?
A lot of folks’ sarcasm detectors seem to be completely broken.
After I emphasize “diplomatic” – now really, guys and gals?
MY “detector/filter” WAS STOLEN!!!!!!!
GOSH DARN…F^%$#!#$$%^%*(uckers!!
Sarcasm?…NAAhhh….
original slur deleted
and changed vote from down to up …. due to my temporarily broken Sarc-o-meter.
!!! I SEE what you did there!
Well PLAYED…SIR!!
Biden is just another arm chair blowhard tough guy. There is a big difference with having that look of a killer,and having the look of some one…….Who will send some one else to do their dirty work. It is easy to tell these two apart.
I imagine that Cornpop would likely be more scared of Putin.
Compared to Bitten, Putin is a cub scout.
Watch out.
Biden did stand down Corn Pop, so there’s that.
Allegedly, CornPop tapped out after Lifeguard Joe used his signature submission hold- The Figure Four Hairy Leg Lock
I have an old friend that used to do that figure four leg lock. He’d grab some poor fuquere and like lightning have him down on the floor in that hold. I saw him do it a dozen times and still don’t know how he got people in that thing so fast. He’d really have them howling.
Good thing he never decided to do the Pile Driver.
Biden wouldn’t make a pimple on this guy’s ass.
Exactly. Which one can you imagine sitting on a horse in front of an army, pulling his sword and saying “Attack!” and then leading the charge?
It is no wonder they do not want this man taking questions from the press. Someone might actually ask a difficult question and he could start WW III just by his ignorant answer.
“Walk softly and carry a big stick“, said one president without dementia.
“Talk loudly and pretend you have a big dick”, says a president with dementia.
===
Had Trump said the same thing the media would have had a field day. ‘TRUMP PUSHES AMERICA CLOSER TO NUCLEAR WAR!!!” …. the possibilities for such bullshit headlines are without end.
Dementia is literally a laughing stuck among EVERY leader of EVERY country. Take that to the bank.
One would wonder if they (foreign leaders) are waiting for 45 to COME BACK!!
Wishing Biden* “Good health” is equivalent to telling someone in a wheelchair to have a great run. He knew he had to plant his tongue firmly in his cheek to say it. Or a southerner saying, “Bless your heart.”
We are all laughing at you, Joey. Hope you are removed before you can destroy anything more. Destroy Back Better.
Dr Steve Piezcenik has stated that Biden has clinical dementia brought on by 1988 cranial aneurysm surgery.
Biden himself said he spent 6 months at Walter Reed.
Steel Cage Tag Team Match btw ” Sleepy Joe Biden and Kamala Sutra vs Vlad the Impaler and The Orange Emperor
Biden engaging in a war of words with Putin is hilarious. He is unarmed up against a very strong, capable, intelligent man.
Biden and Putin debate….
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCSus3rszGw
Russian President Vladimir Putin has challenged his American counterpart, Joe Biden, to a live streamed online discussion, without a delay, and suggested they debate bilateral relations and issues of importance to the wider world.
“I would like to suggest to President Biden that we continue our discussion, but on the condition that we actually do it live, without any delays, directly in an open, live discussion,” Putin told the Russia 24 TV channel on Thursday. “I think it would be interesting for the people of Russia and the people of the United States and many other countries,” he added.
I’d pay Big Bucks to see that debate!!
Fighting with China and Russia, huh Biden? I don’t think “unity” means what you think it does.
He thinks Jill is still married to that other guy and he’s trying to impress her.
Putin has outplayed us on the grand chessboard of world politics.
