After the announcement of the U.S. presidential election results last month, while leaders of major countries consecutively congratulated President-elect Biden, President Putin did not join the congratulatory chorus. President Putin and the Kremlin maintained the position that it was premature to congratulate Biden’s victory since the final vote count of the U.S. election had not been completed and President Donald Trump’s legal challenges were ongoing.
