India TV News  

Russian President Vladimir Putin slammed US President Joe Biden and his recent claims wherein the latter said Russia would attack a NATO country if he won in Ukraine. Putin termed his statement "complete nonsense", adding that Russia had no interest in fighting with the NATO military alliance.

"The reality is that after the fall of the Soviet Union, they considered that they just had to wait for a bit to completely destroy Russia," Putin said.
