I’d like everyone to calm down — we are not planning to influence the course of the elections in the US," the president said.
When asked about the presidential candidates, Putin said that Hillary Clinton has chosen to take an aggressive stance with accompanying rhetoric in regard to Russia, whereas Donald Trump is calling for cooperation in counter-terrorism.
"We do not know what our relations will be like after the elections," President Putin said.
"We don’t know if Donald Trump will carry out his intentions, how far he will go in cooperating with us. Or if Hillary Clinton will put into practice her threats and harsh rhetoric toward Russia. Perhaps, she will soften her stance. But naturally we welcome anyone who is willing to work with us," he said.
