Details: Putin suggested that the phrase "son of a bitch" was a response to his recent interview, in which the Russian president called Biden a better future US president for Russia than Donald Trump.
Putin explained his train of thought thus: "And judging from what he has just said, I am absolutely right. Because this is a reasonable response to what I have said. Why? Because he couldn't just tell me: 'Well done, Vladimir, thank you, you’ve helped me a lot.'"
The Russian president also claimed that he had not changed his mind after being called "son of a bitch" and still considers Biden to be the best option from the Russian point of view.
Background:
- In a speech at a public event, US President Joe Biden called Russian President Vladimir Putin a "crazy son of a bitch". The Kremlin has labelled these words a "disgrace".
- Media reports have suggested that Biden uses obscene language and swearing in private conversations to describe his primary political opponent, Donald Trump.
