Putin responded to the assassination attempt on Trump

How Russia commented on the assassination attempt on Trump

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, of course, condemned the manifestations of violence in the process of political struggle. Putin's ally wished a speedy recovery to Trump and other victims and expressed condolences to the family of the deceased, who was at a campaign rally at that moment.

According to him, the Kremlin is not surprised by the assassination attempt on Trump because of the “atmosphere that has been created around him” amid the race for the presidency of the United States. As Peskov explained, it was allegedly obvious that something like this would happen.

After numerous attempts to eliminate candidate Trump from the political arena using first, legal instruments, courts, prosecutors, attempts to politically discredit it was obvious to all outside observers that his life was in danger, he emphasized.

At the same time, Moscow is in no hurry directly blame the White House administration for everything. Peskov says that the Kremlin does not consider the attempt to eliminate the US presidential candidate to be the work of the current government, but a “stone” was still thrown in Biden’s direction.

“The atmosphere created this administration in the process of political struggle, the atmosphere around candidate Trump, it was this that provoked what America is now facing,” he said.

The propagandist also saw a connection between the assassination attempt on Trump and the foreign policy of the administration of current President Joe Biden. According to him, they allegedly try to resolve all issues “from a position of strength, primarily in world affairs.”

“These are both sanctions, which the administration is so fond of, and political pressure , or the direct use of force, military force. Now the violence has, in fact, been transferred inside the country,” said Dmitry Peskov.

By the way, other propagandists also failed to bypass this event, and have already begun to look for a “Ukrainian trace” in the incident. Moreover, the occupiers are already even cynically promising “revenge” for Donald Trump.
