Russia is keen for the U.S. to sort out its “internal quarrels” so that Moscow may establish more stable relations with Washington, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday.
“[I]nternal quarrels prevent the establishment of such stability in international relations due to internal political reasons,” Putin said on March 11 during a meeting on investment promotion in Russia, according to the state-owned Russian News Agency TASS.
As an example of such internal conflicts, Putin referred to the January 6 U.S. Capitol riot, which saw self-proclaimed supporters of former U.S. President Donald Trump storm the U.S. Congress in an attempt to block its certification of U.S. President Joe Biden’s general election win on November 3:
Some of the people who took a stroll to the U.S. Congress — 150 people were arrested, they face imprisonment from 15 to 25 years. Will all these internal controversies end there or not? We do not know, but we want it to end, because we are interested in stable relations with all our main partners.
Putin said it was “impossible to say with certainty how the world’s lead economy’s relations with its main partners and competitors in Asia and Europe will unfold,” referring to the U.S.
