An Overview of Putin’s Remarks

In light of unproven theories alleging that President Trump colluded with Russian officials to win the 2016 election, his relationship with Putin has faced scrutiny. The President, his associates, and even Russia have collectively denied all claims of collusion. However, this has not changed the minds of critics who believe that evidence will eventually surface.

Nevertheless, the ongoing Russia probe is not stopping Putin from publicly lauding President Trump’s business savvy. During a conversation with the German Chancellor, the Russian leader shared the following statements about Trump:

Donald isn’t just President of the United States, he’s also a good and strong entrepreneur. He’s also promoting the interests of his business to ensure sales in the European market of liquified American gas.

President Trump has issued complimentary remarks about Putin in past times.

Reactions to Putin’s Remarks

The feedback regarding Putin’s praise of the President vary from person to person. Some Americans remain convinced that the Russia leader’s statements may somehow correlate with theories of election meddling and collusion. However, many other Americans have criticized individuals with the preceding perceptions of Putin’s praise. Conservatives and Trump supporters are staunch detractors of the Russia investigation, noting the lack of evidence. In many right-wing circles, the Russia probe is largely regarded as a “witch hunt.”
