Joe Biden is a pretty ballsy man. He cowers away from the public eye, but then escalates relations between the United States and Russia by calling Russian President Vladimir Putin a “killer” with no soul.
Biden also declared that Putin will pay a “price” for allegedly interfering with the 2020 presidential election.
He said during an interview with ABC NEws on Wednesday, “The price he's going to pay, well, you'll see shortly.”
However, he declined to reveal exactly what the consequences were. Biden added that it would be in Russia’s best “interest to work together” with the United States.
Interestingly enough, Biden’s Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines’ investigation found that the Kremlin did not target our election infrastructure, nor were there any attempts to “alter any technical aspect of the voting process.”
Biden made his comment about the 'price' Putin would pay just after the U.S. Director of National Intelligence released a report that assessed Russian intelligence officials fed disinformation to Donald Trump allies about the Bidens during the 2020 campaigns as part of an election influence effort.
It even said proxies for Putin himself pushed 'misleading or 'unsubstantiated' allegations during the campaign. Some of those attacks were amplified by President Trump, who regularly went after Biden for 'corruption' during the campaign, and who the intel report assessed Russia preferred in the election.
'The Russian ambassador in Washington, Anatoly Antonov, has been invited to come to Moscow for consultations conducted with the aim of analyzing what should be done and where to go in the context of ties with the United States,' according to a statement by Russia's foreign ministry.
Russian officials now say they will consult with its Washington envoy on the Kremlin's ties with the U.S. but stressed it wanted to prevent an 'irreversible deterioration' in relations.
Even with the high stakes drama between nuclear powers, recalling an ambassador can sometimes be less than meets the eye.
In 1988, Russia recalled its ambassadors to the U.S. and Great Britain to protest joint raids against Iraq. But it had little effect. ''Recalling an ambassador for consultations means absolutely nothing,' said former U.S. Ambassador to Russia Jack Matlock. 'It's just a gesture.' who was quoted in a lengthy thesis: 'Silent Statecraft: The Revocation of Ambassadors as a Diplomatic Tool.'
