Russian President Vladimir Putin is hitting back at President Biden with an "I know you are, but what am I" kind of response to being blasted as a "killer."
Biden in an interview with ABC News this week said he believes Putin to be a killer, and the Russian president responded on Thursday by declaring, "It takes one to know one," Bloomberg reports. Putin also said he wishes Biden "good health," a comment he claimed he was making "without irony."
