Russia slams Antony Blinken's jibe over troops

"US Secretary of State Antony Blinken tried to make a funny joke today about the tragic events in Kazakhstan," Russia's foreign ministry said in a statement on Facebook. "A boorish attempt, but then again not his first one," it said, adding that Blinken "ridiculed a totally legitimate response" of the Collective Security Treaty Organisation (CSTO), a military alliance led by Russia.
