Joe Biden once again defines Russian President Vladimir Putin as a "butcher". He did it during a rally in North Carolina.

The US president, speaking about his proposal to increase taxes for the richest, said that the $400 billion in additional revenue linked to an increase in the tax rate to 25% could be used to «drastically reduce the federal deficit. But – he added – we could do many things, including finally making sure we protect Ukraine from that butcher Putin."

On March 26, 2022, Biden had already called Putin a "butcher" during a meeting with Ukrainian refugees in Warsaw.

New statements against the Kremlin, which arrive in the aftermath of Moscow's accusations against the USA and Great Britain, which according to Russian services were involved, as was Ukraine, in the attack - claimed by ISIS K - at the Crocus Hall in Moscow , which cost the lives of over 130 people.

Fiery words against the West also came from Patriarch Kirill, head of the Russian Orthodox Church, who also accused "the enemies of Russia" of having tried to foment religious divisions between Christians and Muslims with the attack on the concert hall of the Russian capital.

Western countries, Kirill said, «have tried to take advantage of internal problems with the migration situation to aggravate interethnic relations in our country, including with the help of the radical Islamic factor. And there was an attempt - continued the patriarch - "to pit two traditional religions against each other, to divide the people according to religious principles, and obviously we cannot allow anything of this kind in Russia".
