US President Donald Trump and Democratic candidate Joe Biden both renounced their support for Russia in the election during the campaign debate. The event was broadcast live by NBC News on its YouTube channel.
The head of state noted that, according to American intelligence, Russia and Iran want him to be defeated in the upcoming elections. He referred to the statement by the director of US national intelligence, John Ratcliffe, that the common desire for Russia and Iran is to see the incumbent president defeat.
Biden, in turn, said that Russia does not want him to take the presidency. The former vice president explained that the Russian authorities are trying to prevent this development of events, “because they know that he knows them, and they know him.” The democrat stressed that if elected, he will make Russia, China and Iran “pay” for meddling in the US elections.
During the debate, the US President also accused his opponent Joe Biden of receiving money from Russia. Biden received $ 3.5 million from Russia, he said. At the same time, Trump added that he himself never received money from Russia.
