Putin spokesman: Biden comment in Poland a 'personal insult'

Russian President Vladimir Putin's chief spokesperson Dimitry Peskov said that President Biden's comments on Putin over the weekend, in which he said the Russian leader "cannot remain in power," were a "personal insult."

Peskov, who is also Putin's deputy chief of staff, told PBS on Monday that Biden's comments were "alarming."

"First of all, it's - first of all, it is personal insult. And one can hardly imagine a place for personal insult in rhetorics of a political leader, and especially a political leader of the greatest country in the world, of the United States," he said.

"So, we're really sorry about that. And his statement involves whether Putin should not or should be in power in Russia. Of course, it is completely unacceptable. It is not for the United States' president to decide who is going to be and who is the president of the Russian Federation. It is people of Russia who are deciding during the election," he added.

It is not for the Russian's president to decide who is going to be and who is the president of the United States either

see how that works?

It's telling that Peskov used the word insult instead of slander.

Putin is a mass murderer and a war criminal to name only two things that can be pinned on him. And he wants to take umbrage at something like that? What is this, a Russian soap opera?

the person who uttered it had to say?

There is nothing that TFG or Rudy G could say to me that I would find 'insulting' because as human beings, they're so repugnant to me that I could care less what their opinion of me was.
