Kremlin responds after Biden claims he’s known Putin for 40 years

Via RT

“Deep analytical conclusions” can be made about the US leader after his recent comments, Dmitry Peskov has said

It is often difficult to fathom what US President Joe Biden means with his statements, including when he claims to have known his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, for 40 years, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said.

Biden lashed out at Putin during an interview with ABC News on Thursday, saying: “I have known him for over 40 years. He has concerned me for 40 years. He is not a decent man. He is a dictator.”

Speaking on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) on Friday, Peskov stated that Putin “does not react and will not react” to insults such as Biden’s.

The spokesman added that he could only express regret that “in international politics at this level such rhetoric and such expressions are employed regarding a head of state.”

Referring to Biden’s claim that he has known the Russian leader for four decades, Peskov added that “sometimes one can only wonder what the US president means, including when he speaks about [knowing Putin for] 40 years.”

Some commentators have already “rolled back time to understand what Putin was doing 40 years ago. One can make very deep analytical conclusions about how Biden could have become acquainted with him [at that time],” Peskov said, prompting laughter from journalists.

The presidential spokesman was apparently referring to the fact that 40 years ago, the then 32-year-old Putin was working for the Soviet security agency, the KGB. Biden was 41 at the time, serving as senator for the US state of Delaware.

The two officially met for the first time in 2011, when Putin held the post of prime minister under President Dmitry Medvedev, and Biden was US vice president in the administration of Barack Obama.

Posting on X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday, conservative commentator and former US Senate staffer Steve Guest wrote that by claiming he had known Putin for four decades, the 81-year-old Biden was “either… lying or he is admitting he was in contact with a KGB agent since 1984 or Biden’s brain is so cooked that he doesn’t know what on earth he is talking about.”

The Wall Street Journal reported earlier this week, citing dozens of people who have been in contact with Biden recently, that beyond his frequent mental gaffes in public, the president is also showing “signs of slipping” in closed-door meetings with US lawmakers.

Biden has directed insults at Putin throughout his presidency, among other things calling the Russian leader a “killer” in 2021 and a “crazy SOB” in February. The Kremlin has denounced the comments as “shameful,” but has declined to respond with equally harsh rhetoric.

” He is not a decent man. He is a dictator.””

  • RT

Zhou Bai Din is a horrible monster who not only:

– Made CoVid injections compulsory for military and government workers and millions of others.
– Disgraced USSA with the catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan.

-Fully supportive of ethnic cleansing, scorched earth, and the mass slaughter of civilians in the ongoing Gaza Atrocity.

and much much more. He is a nightmare for the former republic and the world, him and his Communist Democrat minions. FJB.

WELL IT’S A WELL KNOWN FACT THAT AFTER THE OLD SOVIET UNION FELL AND THE KGB RECORDS WERE OPENED TO THE PUBLIC AND RESEARCHERS, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT TED KENNEDY HAD WORKED WITH THE KGB AGAINST PRESIDENT REAGAN. THAT MY FRIENDS IF TREASON MOST FOUL. TED KENNEDY SHOULD HAVE BEEN IMMEDIATELY EXPELLED FROM CONGRESS AND INVESTIGATED FOR ESPIONAGE. BUT ALAS ONLY REPUBLICANS AND THE SMALL PEOPLE ARE TARGETED FOR SUCH. THE ELITE DEMS IN DC ARE ABOVE THE LAWS AND CONSTITUTION.

As with the majority of democrat accusations, they project their own actions and desires onto their opponents. Biden is without exaggeration, an outlandish and compulsive liar, so his preposterous statements go ignored. Sadly, the democrat base is so easily convinced by leftist propaganda, that these claims prove effective.

This reminded me of my neighbor years ago who claimed to have done so many things he would have had to be two hundred years old. When I thought of Biden over the years, words like stupid or slow come to mind. Now he is the President and senile to boot. The Democrats crowed about how adults were in charge now, fukin funny. We are on the brink of WW3 and a possible nuclear exchange with the Russians. I wonder if it’s part of using various ways to depopulate the planet. Jabs and strange ideas about what we should eat. I need to buy some popcorn.

The Russians are a cosmopolitan, sophisticated, very long established and developed society. By comparison Biden can be seen as a ‘lucky bum’, a member of a thoroughly disreputable family of hangers on at the fringes of the national political scene. Mostly small time grifters and opportunists, with Joe the unexpected ‘success’ amid their generally sleazy mediocrity.

Biden, therefore, disregarding his obvious dementia, could be expected to speak in such an uncultured, rude manner in the circumstance. Likewise he could be expected to lie in an unsophisticated and easily exposed manner. He is, after all, thoroughly out of his league.
