The United Nations did not comment on U.S. President Joe Biden's statements about the Russian leader, but noted that they advocate good relations between the countries.
"I’m not going to play commentary to what President Biden said. As a matter of principle, we are always for the promotion of good and open relations between the world’s countries and, especially, two Security Council… permanent members of the Security Council," spokesman for the UN Secretary-General Stephane Dujarric told a daily press briefing.
Answering the question if the Secretary‑General worried for the world peace after such statements, the spokesman said that there's no need to jump a few steps here. "Is the Secretary‑General worried about the state of the world? Yes. I think, if you’ve been listening to him for the last year or so, he has expressed his concern in a number of places," Dujarric said.
