RUSSIANS ARE RIGHTEOUSLY INFURIATED OVER BIDEN'S STUPIDITY

Russia is demanding an apology from the US and is threatening further retaliation after Joe Biden referred to Vladimir Putin as a 'killer'. 

The provocative comments prompted Russia to make the highly unusual move on Wednesday to recall Anatoly Antonov, its ambassador to the US, for urgent consultations over the future of US-Russia ties. 

In an escalation of the war of words, senior Kremlin officials are now warning of greater action in response to the inflammatory remarks. 

In an ABC News interview, Biden said 'I do' when asked if he believed the Russian president was a killer, described Putin as having no soul, and promised he would pay a price for alleged Russian meddling in the 2020 presidential election, something the Kremlin denies. 

Konstantin Kosachyov, deputy chairman of parliament's upper house, said Biden's comments were unacceptable, would inevitably worsen already bad ties, and ended any hope in Moscow of a change of U.S. policy under a new U.S. administration. He said Moscow's recall of its ambassador Anatoly Antonov was the only reasonable step to take in the circumstances. 

Putin's spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, said it was a 'very bad statement by the U.S. president' that made it clear that 'he doesn't want to normalize relations.' 'He clearly does not want to improve relations with our country, and we will be proceeding based precisely on this,' Peskov told reporters on a conference call on Thursday. 'There hasn't been anything like this in history.'
