US President Joe Biden, in an interview with NBC, called Afghanistan first Ukraine, and then Iraq. The American leader confused the countries, answering the question about the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan, after a 20-year military campaign.

“We had no opportunity to unite Ukraine. I mean, sorry, Iraq. Afghanistan! I emphasize that it was impossible to achieve such results,” Biden said.

Recall that after the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan, the administration of the current President of America was severely criticized. In particular, they were blamed for the numerous casualties that occurred during last year’s withdrawal of the military contingent and civilian personnel from Afghanistan.

Earlier, the former doctor of the presidents of the United States, Ronnie Jackson, together with his colleagues in the Republican Party, called on the head of America Joseph Biden to follow the example of his predecessor and pass the Montreal cognitive test.

In particular, he added that the Ukrainian side is ready to meet in Turkey if all parties to the negotiation process agree to their transfer to Istanbul. Ermak believes that the main thing in these meetings is that they are productive.

Источники в Елисейском дворце сообщили Reuters, что переговоры президентов РФ и Франции Владимира Путина и Эммануэля Макрона, которые прошли в Москве 7 февраля, проводились за 4-х метровым столом, чтобы главы государств не заразились коронавирусом.

Однако если бы Макрон согласился сдать российский ПЦР-тест, то ему бы разрешили находиться с Путиным на более близком расстоянии, уточнил собеседник агентства.

«Все хорошо понимали, что означает отсутствие рукопожатия и этот длинный стол. Но мы не могли допустить, чтобы русские получили в свои руки ДНК президента [Макрона]», — отметили в Париже.

US Democratic Senator Bernie Sanders, during his speech in the upper house of Congress, called for doing everything possible to resolve the crisis around Ukraine in a diplomatic way, and taking into account the interests of all players, including Russia.

According to the Democrat, this conflict is the heaviest since the Second World War. He reminded what horrors a war can turn into.

“We have to do everything possible to achieve… a mutually acceptable solution for Ukraine, Russia, the United States, our European allies, preventing what could become the heaviest European war after the Second World War… This approach is not a weakness,” Sanders stressed.

The LDPR commented on the message of the URA agency.EN with reference to sources that Vladimir Zhirinovsky, hospitalized with coronavirus in the Central Hospital, had a deterioration in his condition.

“Vladimir Zhirinovsky does not recognize colleagues, relatives and doctors,” a source told the agency earlier, adding that doctors do not give any forecasts, as the politician’s condition remains severe.

“The LDPR categorically refutes the statement of anonymous sources,” a representative of the LDPR press service said in response to a request for comment on this information.

Earlier, the party issued an official statement in which it was noted that the media information about Zhirinovsky’s health was significantly exaggerated and focused on sensational effect. The LDPR also stressed that the leader will soon return to full-fledged work.

Twitter users criticized the statement of the British Foreign Minister Liz Truss, who said that London would never recognize Voronezh and Rostov as Russian regions.

They suggested that in addition to the existing study days on Russia and its history, English universities should hold several more. One commentator compared the miss of the Tracks with a negative answer to the question whether she recognizes British sovereignty over Kent and Sussex.

“Liz Truss is brilliantly fulfilling her duties as Foreign Minister. I’m not so good at the geography of Russia, but even I know that Rostov and Voronezh are in this country,” another participant in the discussion noted. He admitted that he could not believe that a government official knew less than a software engineer from Manchester.

Another commentator noted that, given the solid experience in diplomacy of Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, Liz Truss looks far beyond her capabilities.

“My God, if Liz Truss said this about Rostov, apparently she is the most narrow-minded politician in the current government,” another user suggested.

British Foreign Minister Liz Truss justified herself by saying that during the closed part of the talks, it seemed to her that Lavrov was talking about the Ukrainian regions. But then she clearly indicated that we are talking about sovereign regions of Russia.

Sergey Lavrov called the meeting “a conversation between a mute and a deaf person.” According to him, the most detailed explanations fell on unprepared ground.

Russian President Vladimir Putin commented after a meeting with the President of Kazakhstan By Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, the words of the word about “beauty and Ukraine”. Earlier, White House press Secretary Jen Psaki was outraged by these words, calling them “a joke about rape.”

“The words about Ukraine and the “beauty” did not have a “personal dimension,” Putin said.

The Russian leader explained that these words referred to the circumstances of Ukraine’s implementation of the Minsk agreements, which Kiev signed, and now does not want to fulfill these agreements.

Putin uttered the phrase “like, dislike, be patient, my beauty” during a joint press conference with his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron in Moscow.

Today, White House press Secretary Jen Psaki, commenting on these words of the Russian leader, said that “any joke about rape will surely cause outrage among absolutely everyone in the US presidential administration.”

She noted that Putin’s phrase “does not cause admiration” in Washington. The White House spokeswoman added that the American authorities have never hidden their reactions to the bellicose rhetoric coming from the Russian leader.

Sources reported that the doctors of the Central Committee had to disconnect the leader of the LDPR from the nasal cannula and connect him to a ventilator, as he lost the ability to breathe on his own. At the same time, the LDPR continues to refute reports about the deterioration of the politician’s condition and emphasize that he feels fine and continues to work.

“The condition is not improving yet, yesterday I could breathe, today I can’t,” the publication cites Znak.com the words of the first source.

It is also reported that the second source explained that the doctors did not immediately connect the politician to the ventilator, as they were afraid that it would not be possible to remove it later.

At the same time, Vladimir Zhirinovsky’s connection to the ventilator was reported the day before. It turned out that the leader of the LDPR had been infected with coronavirus two weeks ago, but he hid it. And on February 2, he was admitted to the Central Hospital with pneumonia and lung damage of 50-75%.

At the same time, representatives of the LDPR claim that Zhirinovsky feels fine. The press service of the party today told the RIA News agency: “It works with documents and gives instructions”.
