Referring to the US electoral system as the old system, Putin said it was up to Washington to decide whether to change it. He made the remarks in an interview with a Russian television channel.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has blamed the ongoing election crisis on flaws in the US electoral system. The problem with the US electoral system is now clear to US officials. It is not up to us whether they need to change anything. It’s a matter of the American people, of their parliamentarians.
Newly elected US President Joe Biden has already been congratulated by leaders around the world. However, Putin has not yet congratulated him. Putin has said he will not congratulate anyone before he is officially declared president.
Russia is willing to work with anyone who will be officially declared the next president of the United States, Putin said. However, I do not congratulate anyone until the winner is officially declared or a candidate concedes defeat.
We look forward to ending their internal political conflict, Putin said, referring to the Republicans’ challenge to the legitimacy of the vote count.
