US election: Putin backs Kamala Harris

Russian President, Vladimir Putin, on Thursday declared his support for Kamala Harris in the November US presidential election.

Putin made this declaration a day after the U.S. Justice Department charged two Russian media executives over an alleged illegal scheme to influence the November election with pro-Russian propaganda.

He had said earlier this year, before President Joe Biden withdrew from the race – also with apparent irony – that he preferred him over Trump because Biden was a more predictable “old school” politician.

The Kremlin leader said Biden had recommended his supporters to back Harris, “we will do the same, and we will support her”.

Putin said Trump, as president, had introduced more sanctions against Russia than anyone in the White House before him.
