Biden Again Insults Putin

U.S. President Joe Biden has once again made derogatory statements regarding Russian President Vladimir Putin, referring to him as a "dictator" and adding that he has known him for over 40 years. "I have known him (Putin) for more than forty years. He has concerned me for 40 years. He is not a decent person; he is a dictator," he stated in an interview with ABC News.

At the same time, Biden did not clarify how he has known the Russian leader for more than four decades. The current U.S. leader has regularly made insults towards other world leaders and journalists. Earlier, American media reported on complaints from White House staff regarding Biden's rudeness. In May, addressing graduates of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in New York, the President again permitted himself to make undiplomatic remarks about the Russian President, calling him a "brutal tyrant."

In Washington, Russian Ambassador Anatoly Antonov deemed Biden's latest insult unacceptable, adding that it is directed against the entire united people of Russia.
