Russia Blasts Kamala Harris Saying Her Remarks About Putin Are ‘Outrageous’


The Russian Embassy in Washington has said derogatory remarks made by US Vice President Kamala Harris about Russian President Vladimir Putin are “unacceptable” and an insult to the country.

The Democratic presidential hopeful described Putin as a “murderous dictator” and America’s “adversary” during an interview Tuesday with radio host Howards Stern

RT reports: In a post on Telegram on Wednesday, the Russian embassy called the remarks “outrageous.”

“Such US escapades insult the entire Russian people, who demonstrate unwavering unity around the leader of our country,” the post read.

The Russian embassy noted that “such boorish language has become a habit among current so-called American statesmen.”

“It only shows the frustration and impotence of the ruling circles in Washington. Due to their inability to deal with the Russian Federation and inflict a ‘strategic defeat’” on Moscow in the conflict with Kiev, the statement stressed.

Instead of channeling their “anger and offensive rhetoric,” the US leadership “should come to terms with the fact that Russia is pursuing a policy based on its national interests,” the embassy added.

Putin stated last month that while he previously favored US President Joe Biden to win re-election, he would root for Harris, since Biden endorsed her after suspending his campaign in July.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump “imposed more sanctions on Russia than any president who came before him,” the Russian president noted, suggesting that the Democratic contender “would maybe refrain from such actions.” Harris “laughs so infectiously” that it suggests “everything is going well for her,” he added.

Putin’s ‘endorsement’ immediately made headlines in the US, with the White House demanding that the Russian president “stop talking about our elections.” Trump reacted by saying he was not sure whether to be insulted by the Russian leader’s words or take them as a favor to him.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov explained later that Putin’s comments about supporting Harris were not serious. The Russian leader “has a good sense of humor” and “often resorts to jokes during his speeches and interviews,” he explained.
