Putin's Preference: Biden Over Trump in US Election

Former President Donald Trump responded to Russian President Vladimir Putin's comments about preferring President Joe Biden in the 2024 election, calling it a "compliment" and suggesting it's because Biden is not as harsh against Russia. Trump's remarks came amid criticism for his recent attacks on NATO, where he suggested he might not aid member countries if they don't contribute enough financially. His comments drew widespread backlash from global leaders, members of Congress, and his 2024 campaign opponents, with former President Barack Obama and Nikki Haley among those criticizing his stance on NATO. Biden also condemned Trump's remarks, accusing him of inviting Putin to invade NATO allies and bowing down to a Russian dictator.
