Secretary of state Antony Blinken tries to row back on president’s inflammatory remarks in Poland
The US secretary of state, Antony Blinken, has insisted the country does not have “a strategy of regime change in Russia – or anywhere else”, hours after President Joe Biden described Vladimir Putin as a “butcher” who “cannot remain in power”.
Blinken’s intervention is the latest White House attempt to walk back the inflammatory remarks Biden made in a speech in Poland on Saturday.
