Reuters-The Kremlin said on Thursday (March 18) that comments by U.S. President Joe Biden that he thought Vladimir Putin was a killer clearly showed that Biden had no interest in mending ties with Moscow and that Russia would now take that into account.
In an ABC News interview broadcast on Wednesday (March 17), Biden said "I do" when asked if he believed the Russian president was a killer. He also described Putin as having no soul and said Russia would "pay a price" for alleged election meddling.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov described the comments as "very bad" and without precedent. He told reporters on a conference call that Russia would analyse its approach to relations with Washington.
