Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova ridiculed US President Joe Biden's statement about paying bills. Earlier, Biden said that Americans are "not a nation of slackers" and pay their bills.

"The US has a national debt of 31,4 TRILLION dollars. And every minute it increases by 2 million," she wrote on Telegram. She stressed that we are not talking about hard workers, but about "a bunch of financial fraudsters" who "torture working people" around the world.
