A smiling Vladimir Putin said Russia will support Kamala Harris, as he gave an interview while attending the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, Russia.
The Russian president also spoke about Ms Harris’s “infectious laugh” and criticised former President Donald Trump’s sanctions on the country.
Mr Putin’s comments have been met with criticism, with US Security Council spokesman, John Kirby saying: “Mr Putin ought to stop talking about our elections, period. He shouldn’t be favouring anybody one way or another”.
