π·πΊRussian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova commented on Biden's words calling aid to Ukraine a "smart investment":
"They used to call it a 'fight for freedom and democracy.' Now it turns out it's just a calculation. That's how it has always been, it's just that the world has been deceived, covering itself with values that don't exist for Washington," she wrote in her Telegram channel.
According to Zakharova, wars have traditionally been a "smart investment" for the US, as they were not fought on American territory, and they did not care about other people's costs.
