"Mr. Putin is fully aware of how this administration has been countering Russia's malign influence globally, especially our efforts in Ukraine," White House National Security Council Spokesman John Kirby stated during a press briefing.
"We have repeatedly shown our readiness to confront Russia's actions, particularly in Ukraine. Mr. Putin, just stay out of our elections."
Putin, in a broadcast interview with Russian state television on Wednesday, disclosed his preference for Biden, citing his "predictability." Nonetheless, he emphasized Moscow's readiness to collaborate with any US leader elected by the American people.
