Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that he believed U.S. President Joe Biden had called him a "crazy SOB" in reaction to a Putin comment last week saying he would rather have Biden as president than Donald Trump. Putin agreed in response to a TV reporter's question that Biden's remark was "rude" and that the remark showed why the Kremlin felt that for Russia, Biden would be a preferable future U.S. president to Donald Trump. "We are ready to work with any president. But I believe that for us, Biden is a more preferable president for Russia, and judging by what he has just said, I am absolutely right," Putin told state television, with a slight smile. The Kremlin earlier said that Biden had debased the United States by calling Putin a "crazy SOB" at a San Francisco fundraiser on Wednesday. The Russian president said earlier this month that he preferred Biden to Trump as America's president because Biden was "more experienced" and "predictable.(Reuters)
