Kremlin: we getting pretty tired of U.S. threats
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said that it would be great if U.S. President Joe Biden called on the people of Ukraine to stop shooting at each other.
"This address would be even more impressive if the US president urged the people of Ukraine to stop shooting at each other. This would be great," the Kremlin spokesman said on Wednesday.
Commenting on Biden’s statements, Peskov noted that "there was nothing untoward in them." "Perhaps, we can welcome the fact that the president of the U.S., which is one of the world’s largest and most powerful countries, is thinking about the Russian people. We should be probably impressed by this," the Kremlin spokesman stated.
At the same time, Peskov pointed out that Biden’s assurances that the U.S. did not view Russians as enemies would be more impressive without constant threatening. "We would definitely prefer not to listen to various threats, of which we are getting pretty tired. Hence, without these threats, the people of Russia would probably have been more impressed," TASS cited the presidential spokesman as saying.
Yesterday, U.S. President Joe Biden addressed the people of Russia, saying that he did not believe that Moscow was willing to wage war in Ukraine. Biden also emphasized that the US did not perceive Russians as enemies.
