Vladimir Putin Praises Charlie Kirk Following His “Disgusting” Assassination by Radical Leftist (Video)

Russian President Vladimir Putin discussed Charlie Kirk’s disgusting assassination on Thursday during a press briefing where he commented on numerous topics including President Trump’s plan for Gaza.

Vladimir Putin:  This is a disgusting thing. Moreover, it was done just in the open air, almost a live show, and it was totally disgusting.

Certainly, I’d like to rend my condolences to the family of Mr. Kirk and his next of kin, and certainly we sympathize with him.

Moreover, he was defending those traditional values. By the way, the ones that Michael Gloss came to defend with arms in his hands, and he sacrificed his life for that. He sacrificed his life here in a fight for traditional values. As a Russian soldier, and Kirk gave his life there in the United States, but fighting for the same values.

What is the difference? There is almost no difference.

Michael Gloss was a young American who died fighting for Russia in Ukraine. Gloss, son of a senior CIA official, was reportedly killed by a Ukrainian drone while assisting a Russian soldier.
