Russia rejects Biden's statements about Putin
The Russian government rejected the statements made by the president of the United States Joe Biden, about his counterpart, Vladimir Putin, in which he indicated that he should not remain in power. What seemed "alarming" for Moscow.
The spokesman for the Russian Presidency, Dmitri Peskov, added that all White House statements about Russia or its head of state are being closely followed. In addition to being "taking notes" of them.
For their part, spokesmen for the US government have tried to soften Biden's statements and emphasize that the president is not seeking to remove President Putin from his post.
In the opinion of the US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, the message that was wanted to be sent is not to continue empowering the leader of the Kremlin, to attack Ukraine.
Similarly, Peskov pointed out that Biden's insults towards Putin only increase the distance between the two governments. "Personal insults reduce the window of opportunity to improve," he said.
Likewise, he criticized that the leader of the White House called the Russian president a “butcher” when “he is the man who once demanded, speaking on television in his country, that Yugoslavia be bombed. Exactly, bombing of Yugoslavia. He demanded to kill people."
Macron asks to take care of the words against Putin
French President Emmanuel Macron called on all his counterparts to be careful when referring to Russian President Vladimir Putin, since what is sought is to stop the war and not extend it to other countries.
This statement is due to Biden's words, and he stressed that in the event of a larger scale of the war conflict, Europe will suffer the worst part.
“Geographically those who are in front of Russia are the Europeans. The United States is an ally in the framework of NATO with whom we share many values, but those of us who live together with Russia are the Europeans."
Macron also said that he is in constant communication with Putin, to mediate in the war and try to stop it. He is currently seeking to create a humanitarian corridor in the city of Mariupol and to be able to evacuate civilians.
