"There is nothing to confirm": Baiden reacted to the "living" admiral of the Black Fleet Sokolova

The US Presidential Administration has seen a video of the Russian Defense Ministry, where the commander of the Black Sea Fleet is intact and participates in the meeting of the Board of Office. The White House cannot confirm the death of the Commander of the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation Viktor Sokolov. This was reported by the spokeswoman of the administration Karin Jean-Pierre during a briefing on Tuesday on September 26.

According to her, in the United States of America they saw a video published by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, at which the commander of the Black Sea Federation is alive and participates in a meeting of the Board of Defense. "We have seen reports and, of course, we know about the video. Now I just have nothing to confirm," Karin Jean-Pierre said.

On September 22, the rocket attack was headquartered by the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation in a temporarily occupied Crimea. The hit occurred at the time of the meeting of the leading staff of the Russian Fleet. The press service of the Special Operations forces of the Armed Forces on September 25 reported that 34 Russian officers were killed as a result of the attack, including the commander of the Black Sea Fleet of Russia - Admiral Viktor Sokolov.

On September 26, Russia showed a video on which Admiral Viktor Sokolov was allegedly alive and intact and participated in the meeting of the Board of the Ministry of Defense of Russia. In the published footage, it is present on the video. Instead, the Russian Presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said he would not comment on Sokolov. On the same day, the Minister of Defense of Ukraine Rustem Umerov also did not confirm and did not refute information on the death of Viktor Sokolov.
