President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin commented on the events in the United States, describing what is happening as a result of deep crises in the country, which the authorities must deal with themselves.
“I very carefully try to comment (or better not comment) what is happening in other countries, including the United States … What happened is a manifestation of some deep-seated internal crises. In fact, we have been observing this for a long time, from the moment the incumbent president came to power, when he won, he won absolutely obviously, in a democratic way. And the losing side came up with all sorts of fables, only to question its legitimacy, ” the head of state said.
Putin emphasized that the situation with coronavirus highlighted common problems in the United States.
“Here the president says:“ It is necessary to do so-and-so, so-and-so. ” At the local level, the governors say: “Go away,” he said, noting that the problem is that party interests in this case are put above the interests of the people.
