Takes one to know one: Vladimir Putin on Biden’s remark

MOSCOW, March 18

President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that it takes one to know one after the US President said he thought Putin was a killer, adding that he wished Biden good health. Putin was speaking on television after Biden, in an ABC News interview that prompted Russia to recall its Washington ambassador for consultations on Wednesday, said “I do” when asked if he believed the Russian President was a killer. Biden also said he would pay a price for alleged meddling in the election, something the Kremlin denies.

“As he (Biden) said, we know each other personally. What would I reply to him? I would say: I wish you good health,” Putin added. — Reuters
