Putin praised Biden with the phrase “the suite makes the king”
“US President-elect Joe Biden is an experienced politician, but it should be remembered that the king is made by the retinue,” Russian President Vladimir Putin said in a conversation with reporters after a big press conference, TASS reports.
“He [Biden] is a very experienced person, all his life in politics. There is a well-known formula: the suite makes the king. Although we are already seeing applicants for key positions, ”the Russian leader noted.
And he stressed that the Russian administration has already worked with those who are called candidates for posts in the new US administration. In this regard, Putin said, Moscow does not expect any surprises.
But the development of Russian-American relations will depend on who Biden will take into his administration, the head of state summed up.
Former White House senior director for Russia, Fiona Hill, previously advised Biden to take a different approach to relations with Russia than former President Barack Obama, who she believes was dismissive of Moscow.
On December 14, the number of members of the electoral college necessary for the final victory in the presidential election voted for Biden. On January 20, this representative of the Democratic Party will take over as President of the United States.
Putin congratulated Biden on his victory, noting that he is ready to interact and contact him.
