The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, commented on reports that US federal employees were lining up for food amid the shutdown.
"How much money did the United States spend on Zelensky? How much is it translated into "power boxes"?" Zakharova asked.
According to CNN, people who have lost their jobs are queuing for hours to get a box of groceries. About 1.4 million people are on unpaid leave or working without a salary after the suspension of the government.
Recall, the shutdown has been going on for 23 days.
