“Biden is more politically savvy and for this reason Russia would prefer him over Trump as president of the United States.” Russian President Vladimir Putin said this, according to Tass reports.

In the USA, the Moscow leader added, "the election campaign is becoming acute, but it would be incorrect for Russia to interfere".

Russia, Putin continued in the interview, "remains worried" by the prospect of NATO expansion, including to Ukraine.

“Of course, we were worried and still are about the possibility of Ukraine becoming involved in NATO, because it would be a threat to our security,” the Kremlin's number one told journalist Pavel Zarubin, adding that “we were constantly deceived about the lack of expansion of NATO to the east" and instead there were "five expansions, a total deception".
