Responding to President Joe Biden’s comments that he is a “killer,” Russian President Vladimir Putin retorted Thursday, saying it takes one killer to know another. Putin also wished his 78-year-old counterpart “good health,” adding, “I say that without irony and not as a joke,” The Washington Post reported. Biden was speaking with ABC News’s George Stephanopoulos in a Wednesday interview. When asked by Stephanopoulos if he thought Putin was a killer, Biden replied, “I do,” describing the Russian president as lacking a soul. The interview followed the Tuesday release of a U.S. intelligence report accusing Russia of engaging in a campaign of undermining public confidence in the U.S. election system and spreading discord among Americans. Biden also said in the interview that Putin would pay the price for alleged Russian interference in the 2020 election, which Russia denies, Reuters reported. Prior to Biden’s statements, Putin and his associates have been suspected of assassinating several political rivals, according to Business Insider.
