Russian President Vladimir Putin said March 18 that U.S. President Joe Biden’s remarks about him reflect the past and current problems of the United States.

Biden was asked in an interview this week whether he thought Putin was a killer and replied “I do.” Asked about Biden’s comment during a video call marking the anniversary of Russia’s annexation of Crimea, Putin charged that it reflected the United States’ own troubled history.
