Russian President Vladimir Putin said he’s ready to work with any U.S. leader, but still isn’t ready to recognize the election victory of Joe Biden.

“We will work with anyone who has the confidence of the American people,” Putin said on Russian state TV Sunday. “But that confidence can only be given to a candidate whose victory has been recognized by the opposing party, or after the results are confirmed in a legitimate, legal way.”

The comments are some of the most detailed since the election from Putin, one of a dwindling number of leaders who haven’t recognized Biden as the next U.S. head of state. Russia, accused by U.S. intelligence agencies of intervening in 2016 to help get Trump elected, has been wary of Biden, fearing an increase in sanctions pressure and clashes over human rights.

Putin described the Kremlin’s decision not to congratulate Biden as “a formality” with no ulterior motives. When asked if the move could damage U.S.-Russia relations, he said: “there’s nothing to damage, they’re already ruined.”

Arrrrrrrh

The rift in America is a mishap. Well Trump don't want to learn from Good luck Jonathan. He don't know the more he's critizing Biden the more he's losing his respect. Sometimes when things doesn't want to change, you change your concept about it and leave it .

If I was Trump I will just keep quite and watch how Biden rule, a silent person is more dangerous than a loud person .

Trump should just accept defeat, even I wanted him to win Then, but his attitude this days have make me lose certain respect I have for him.

I can't lie, that's the truth!
