Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev described U.S. President Joe Biden's statement that "the outcome of the Ukraine conflict depends on Congress's decision to support Kyiv" as "absolute evil and thirsty for more death." Medvedev added via Telegram: "Biden said the conflict in Ukraine will end as soon as the U.S. Congress votes on new support for Kyiv. One can recall for the hundredth time the old man's dementia, the corruption of his son, the interests of the American military-industrial complex, and the influence of the deep state... One can also remember the war between Democrats and Conservatives, and the struggle between the states and the federal government... But let me say something: Biden's statement is completely evil because it calls for more killing... Kill each other... The more casualties, the better... I want as many victims as possible." Medvedev continued sarcastically: "So let’s see, there’s a pale horse ridden by a knight named death, and behind him is hell... Therefore, the faster the knight rides his pale horse and takes Joseph Biden with him, the better for our world."
