Putin Steps Into US Race to Back ‘Old Style’ Biden Over Trump

Vladimir Putin praised Joe Biden as a more reliable alternative for Russia than Donald Trump, making his first public comments on the American presidential election. #news #breakingnews #politics #politics #trump #biden #russia “He’s a more experienced person, he’s predictable, he’s an old-style politician,” the Russian president said of Biden in a state television interview when asked which of the two leading candidates would be better for Russia, according to a video released by the Kremlin. His intervention highlighting Biden’s political longevity and traditionalist approach amounted to doubtful praise for a US president battling perceptions at home that he’s too old to seek a second term. After Biden denounced Trump on Tuesday for “shameful” threats to allow Russia to invade some NATO allies, it also undercut claims that the incumbent is the only one tough enough to stand up to Putin. -------- Subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://trib.al/KM4k5RA Subscribe to Bloomberg Originals: https://trib.al/dJv9Uw8 Bloomberg Quicktake brings you global social video spanning business, technology, politics and culture.
