Putin on successor: ready to support a critic if he is true to Russia
"If I see an individual, even if he is critical of some of my activities, but I see that the individual...is faithful to the country..., whatever his attitude towards me is, I would do everything to support such people," the Kremlin website quoted Putin as saying.
"President Biden is fundamentally different from Trump, because he is a career man, he has spent almost his entire adulthood in politics," Putin said, according to an interview transcript released by the Kremlin. The NBC TV crew had to quarantine for two weeks due to the coronavirus pandemic before they could meet Putin, journalist Keir Simmons told the Russian leader during the interview.
Asked if Russia was waging a cyber war against the United States, Putin replied: "Where is the proof? I can give an answer to such unproven accusations: You can complain to the International League of Sexual Reforms. Are you okay with that?"
