WHY IT TOOK VLADIMIR PUTIN SIX WEEKS TO CONGRATULATES US PRESIDENT ELECT JOE BIDEN
The Russia leader Vladimir Putin have finally congratulate the United state president elect Joe Bide.
The Russian President Vladimir Putin has finally congratulate Joe Biden on his victory as the 47th US president elect. It took Putin six weeks after the vote to admits Biden's win and also a day after the Electoral College officially confirm Biden's win In a read out statement published by the CNN, the content says;
Vladimir Putin wished the President-elect every success and expressed confidence that Russia and the United States, which bear special responsibility for global security and stability, despite their differences can truly contribute to solving many problems and challenges that the world is currently facing," a Kremlin readout said on Tuesday.
Putin noted that "Russian-American cooperation based on the principles of equality and mutual respect would meet the interests of people in both countries as well as the entire international community."
While many world leaders congratulated President-elect Biden within days of the election, the Kremlin said at the time that it deemed it "correct" to wait for the official results before Putin congratulated the winner. But It's also a marked contrast to 2016, when the Kremlin congratulated US President Donald Trump within hours of the race being called, but Biden's administration will have a very different attitude towards Russia.
But it seems right now the reason is well known to all. Russia has had a free hand for some years now, including the end of President Barack Obama's years in office and now, Biden will work hard with partners and allies to push back on whatever Russia is up to so it's no longer a free day at the office anymore.
