Putin: Trump "An Extraordinary Individual, Talented Individual," Biden Is A "Career Man" In Politics
Jun. 12 - Ahead of his summit with U.S. President Joe Biden next week, Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke to NBC News correspondent Keir Simmons, his first appearance on an American television network in three years. Putin called reports that Russia is offering to supply Iran with technology to attack the U.S. "fake news."
Putin called former President Donald Trump is an "extraordinary talented individual," and said that Biden is "radically different from Trump because Biden is a career man, he has spent virtually his entire adulthood in politics."
"You once described President Trump as a bright person, talented, how would you describe President Biden?" Simmons asked the Russian leader.
"Even now, I believe that former U.S. president Mr. Trump is an extraordinary individual, talented individual, otherwise he would not have become U.S. president," Putin answered. "He is a colorful individual. You may like him or not. But he didn't come from the U.S. establishment, he had not been part of big time politics before, and some like it, some don’t like it but that is a fact."
"President Biden, of course, is radically different from Trump because President Biden is a career man," the foreign leader said. "He has spent virtually his entire adulthood in politics … Just think of the number of years he spent in the Senate … That's a different kind of person, and it is my great hope that yes, there are some advantages, some disadvantages"... source from

G7: Boris Johnson appears to repudiate Tory austerity at summit opening
Jun. 12 - Boris Johnson has told his fellow G7 leaders in Cornwall they should avoid repeating the mistakes of 2008, when the recovery from the deep recession that followed the financial crisis entrenched inequalities.
In his opening remarks to the first formal session of the three-day summit, Johnson said: “It is vital that we don’t repeat the mistakes of the last great crisis, the last big economic recession of 2008, when the recovery was not uniform across all part of society.”
His comments appeared to be a repudiation of his own party’s policies, when a decade of austerity was imposed on public services and welfare benefits after 2010.
Peppering his remarks with Conservative slogans about “building back better” and “levelling up”, Johnson also said the G7 should rebuild their economies “in a more gender-neutral, a more feminine, way”.
“What’s gone wrong with this pandemic, what risks being a lasting scar is, the inequalities that have been entrenched. We need to make sure that as we recover, we level up across our societies – we need to build back better,” he said. source from
