Putin on Biden's "murderer" remark: "I've heard that dozens of times... I don't care"

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jihwan] Vladimir Putin, President of Russia, who is scheduled to hold his first summit with U.S. President Joe Biden on the 16th, stated that he "does not care" about Biden's past criticism of him as a "killer."

In an exclusive interview with NBC on the 11th (local time), President Putin was asked, "Have you heard President Biden call you a killer?" He replied, "I have heard such accusations dozens of times. I do not care."

President Biden said in an interview with U.S. media last March that he thinks President Putin is a "killer."

Regarding the hacking attacks on U.S. government agencies and companies that have continued since the end of last year, Putin denied any knowledge, saying, "I do not know anything about it." The U.S. strongly suspects Russia is behind these hacking incidents.

On the relationship between the U.S. and Russia, he assessed it as "having deteriorated to the lowest point in recent years."
