Russian President Vladimir Putin stated on Thursday that Joe Biden’s ‘crazy SOB’ remark is an apt example of why the Kremlin earlier believed that, for Russia, Biden would be a preferable option as a U.S. president rather than Donald Trump.
“We are ready to work with any president. But I believe that for us, Biden is a more preferable president for Russia, and judging by what he has just said, I am absolutely right,” Putin told state television, with a wry smile.
“It’s not like he can say to me, ‘Volodya, thank you, well done, you’ve helped me a lot,’” Putin said. “You asked me which is better for us. I said it then that, and I still think I can repeat it: Biden,” the Russian premier said.
The Kremlin previously asserted that Biden had demeaned the United States by labeling Putin a “crazy SOB” during a San Francisco fundraiser on Wednesday.
The Russian president said earlier this month that he preferred Biden to Trump as America’s president citing his ‘experience and predictability’.
