Vladimir Putin isnt ready to recognize Joe Biden as the next president, says relations between Moscow and Washington are already ruined
We will work with anyone who has the confidence of the American people. But that confidence can only be given to a candidate whose victory has been recognized by the opposing party, or after the results are confirmed in a legitimate, legal way.
Thats Russian President Vladimir Putin explaining to Russian state TV in an interview on Sunday why hes not ready to acknowledge Joe Biden as the next president of the United States.
Putin, one of the few remaining global leaders not recognizing Biden as the winner of the election, was quoted by Bloomberg as basically saying he doesnt believe it matters what he says at this point because relations between the U.S. and Moscow are already ruined.
Meanwhile, Trump still wont concede and continues to push legal action to overturn the results even as some of his most loyal backers, such as former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, urge him to accept the outcome and put the country first.

He knows what's in store for him.
He gambled big and lost.
I'm wondering who among Trump's minions "knows too much"?
Is that why Rudy was sweating blood?

I can't help but wonder why Putin thinks that stance is of some benefit to him.
