Russian President Vladimir Putin has said he would rather a Joe Biden presidency over Donald Trump ahead of the US election this November.

Mr Biden was the more experienced, predictable person, he said in remarks sure to raise eyebrows.
Before Mr Trump's first run for president in 2016, Mr Putin had praised him as "outstanding and talented".
Mr Biden has been a fierce critic of Mr Putin for years, calling him a "killer" before the invasion of Ukraine.

He dismissed questions about Mr Biden's age and mental health, and said when they had last met in 2021, he had not noticed anything peculiar.
"Even then [three years ago] people were saying that he was incompetent, but I did not see anything of this sort," he said.
"Yes, he kept looking at his papers, but to be honest I kept doing the same. So there was nothing peculiar."
