Russia outraged by Biden’s announcement of Putin’s stay in office

The indignation in Russia over the statements of US President Joe Biden about the permanence of Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin in power does not stop. Biden makes statements and mistakes with “terrifying regularity” that are worse than crimes, said prominent Russian foreign politician Konstantin Kosachev. He was responding to Biden’s words that Putin could not stay in office because of the war in Ukraine. There were times when a US president’s word carried weight, but now it’s over, said the chairman of the Russian Federation Council’s foreign affairs committee.

The Kremlin had also previously made it clear that the United States would not decide on leadership in Russia. “Biden doesn’t decide that, the president of Russia is elected by the Russian people,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said after Biden’s speech in Poland. The US president had said in front of the historic backdrop in the inner courtyard of the Royal Castle in Warsaw: “For God’s sake, this man cannot remain in power.”
