Moscow/IBNS-CMEDIA: Russia is not interfering in any elections and will work with any elected US president, Russian President Vladimir Putin said in an interview with Rossiya Segodnya Director General Dmitry Kiselev for the Rossiya 1 broadcaster and RIA Novosti.

Last month, when asked who is better for Russia among possible future US leaders—Biden or Trump—Putin said in an interview with Rossiya 1 reporter Pavel Zarubin that it would be Biden as he is “more experienced” and “more predictable,” and he is “a strong politician.”

The Russian leader added that Moscow will work “with any US leader who is trusted by the American people.”

“We do not interfere in any way in any elections. And, as I have said many times, we will work with any leader who is trusted by the American people—the American voter,” Putin said.

Commenting on the 2024 election cycle in the US, the president said that it is becoming increasingly uncivilised and that the US political system cannot claim to be democratic.
