Democratic presidential candidate for the United States former Vice President Joe Biden said that the current President of the country Donald Trump is “Putin’s puppy.”
As the Democrat noted during the first debate with the current American leader in Cleveland, “he (Trump) is Putin’s puppy, he can’t even tell him anything about the reward for the heads of American soldiers.” When asked why voters should choose him over his opponent, Biden replied that under Trump’s leadership “we have become weaker, poorer, more divided and more violent.”
In late June, the New York Times, citing anonymous US intelligence officials, published an article claiming that Russian military intelligence had allegedly offered rewards to Taliban-linked militants for attacks on American troops in Afghanistan. The publication did not provide evidence.
