In her Telegram, she commented on the words of Kirby, who, through a story from his uncle, hinted that Russian officials carry manure in their mouths.
“My uncle often said that the best manure sellers often carry samples in their mouths. Russian officials seem to be pretty good salesmen of manure,” he said.
Zakharova noted that there are no such proverbs in Russian, because “they carry manure in their mouths” not here, but overseas.
“But there is our saying: “Whoever hurts, talks about it.” By the way, it now becomes clear why the expression “wash your mouth with soap” is common in the States,” she wrote.
Earlier, Russian Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov commented on US President Joe Biden's latest insult to Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
