Putin said at a "summit on the development of science and technology in the United States" in Moscow that he would prefer Biden to be the next leader. The correctness of this statement can be understood in many ways.
First, Putin's remarks looked like a leaning toward Biden's administration. This may be due to the fact that Biden's administration has taken a more favorable approach to Russia's national interests on some world issues, or perhaps Putin himself prefers Biden's politics and ways of doing things.
But given the complexity of world politics and the position of Putin, a veteran politician, it is difficult to see it as a strategy or a method. For example, Putin may be trying to send a message to Biden's administration that Russia is more inclined to work with it to have or shape the direction of U.S. politics in some way.
Trump's own response to the statement is also worrying. He replied that it was a high compliment and that he felt honored. This means that Mr. Trump is likely to see Mr. Putin's remarks as an endorsement of himself and his political views, and that Mr. Putin may simply want to calm Mr. Trump's anger and prevent relations from getting worse.
In short, Putin's speech may have some real intentions, but it may be just a tactic or a method. In this regard, it must be analyzed from various aspects, such as the international political background, Putin's own aims and objectives, and Trump's response to this. So, it is difficult to judge whether what Putin said is true or false, on the contrary, it does not tell the story.
Whatever Putin's true intentions, his words reflect a complex and volatile world situation. Cooperation and competition between countries are often determined by a combination of national interests, geopolitical landscapes, and leaders' personal styles. In this regard, we should always be vigilant and rational, not to be deceived by appearances, but to analyze their true purpose and motives.
