Of all the countries in the world, it appears that the only world leader of significance to absolutely refuse consider congratulating President Elect Biden is Vladimir Putin.

Yes, THAT Putin, the one who interfered in our election on Trump's behalf.

THAT Putin, the one who had Trump grovel like a dog in front of him at Helsinki.

THAT Putin, the one who paid bounties on our service personnel's heads, while Trump did nothing.

THAT Putin, the one who had his military intimidate and crash into our military in Syria, while Trump said nothing.

Putin knows what a lapdog Trump has been for him. Trump has been Putin's best investment, he want's to keep it a little while longer.

If by some means Trump holds on to the presidency, then Putin will be the only person who stood by him and thus will be our biggest ally. Back in Oct. Bundestag Committee on Foreign Affairs Chairman Dr. Rottgen said if Trump were reelected, he would expect the US to leave NATO.

Because there is NO president elect.

It's disgusting how few people remember US election process.

Read up people. C'mon already. Grab a clue. Anywhere.

Russians are very much aware of the current situation in the US (everything that took place during the last elections.)

Putin is all about formalities and legalities.

He ( or rather his press secretary) made it clear, that Putin first wants to see ALL American laws and regulations fulfilled, before he congratulates anyone with anything.


Until then you can scream all you want.

Well...there apparently used to be one. Like four years ago.



Didn't hear anyone whining about Trump using the title.

You snowflakes love to harp on that. Nothing was proven.

There doesn`t seem to be a president either. He`s been MIA for quite some time.

Is the election official?

If I recall, Mexico's president has not congratulated Biden either.

I would say until it is official, no one should.

Not a conspiracy theorist either, i voted for Biden, he will be the next president, but until it is official, people should refrain, or at least state a congrats in another way.

No, like him or not, Putin is smart and loves his country. He's got nothing to loose by playing this game. You can see how much he loves Russia by the dignity he shows towards his veterans, not afraid to be seen crying at Piskaryovskoye Memorial Cemetery and the zeal with which he sings the Russian Anthem.
