Kosachev offers to swallow insults from Biden
Russia needs to look for common ground with the United States, despite the accusations of the American prosecution of Joe Biden, who called him a murderer Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
Konstantin Kosachev, who recently became Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council, who previously headed the International Affairs Committee for many years, told Izvestia about this, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
He believes that now Moscow and Washington need to look for common ground, and not dramatize the situation. In his opinion, one cannot agree with such radical assessments that were made in the interview, however, in the context of how the question was asked and the answer received, what was said should be perceived to a greater extent as “the assessments of a journalist, not the President of the United States.” .
“Other than that, I would be committed to looking for common ground and positions that unite us. Now there is a historic chance for this, since the US presidential administration has changed.
The previous administration did nothing to improve our relationship. With the current one, the entire space of possibilities is still present. Therefore, for now, I would not dramatize the reservations and concentrate on the positive that can be in our relationship. This is in the interests of the people of Russia and the United States,” Kosachev said.
At the same time, State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin saw in Biden’s statements “hysteria from powerlessness” and an insult to the citizens of the Russian Federation. And the Secretary of the General Council of the United Russia party, First Vice-Speaker of the Federation Council Andrei Turchak called this “an extreme degree of aggression caused by impotence.”
“Biden’s statement is simply a triumph of the political insanity of the United States and the age-related dementia of its leader,” Turchak emphasized.
Recall that Russian Ambassador left Washington after Biden's offensive statements.
As PolitNavigator reported, Crimean politician responded harshly Kosachev.
In the summer of 2020, Kosachev during a performance added to Russia's achievements after the collapse of the USSR, Moscow, receiving numerous requests from Russians from all over the former Soviet Union, did not think of doing anything to return its historical lands seized by the separatists, respecting the “territorial integrity” of the limitrophes.
In 2011, Kosachev, heading the State Duma Committee on Foreign Affairs, stated that Russia would not demand that Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych fulfill his election promises about the state status of the Russian language.
