The outgoing administration of US President Joe Biden will do everything to leave the worst possible legacy for the team of US President-elect Donald Trump, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday.
On January 10, the United States imposed sanctions against the CEO of Russia’s Rosatom, Alexey Likhachev, as well as other officials of the state nuclear corporation.
“In general, we have discussed the sanctions before, we forecast that until the very last day of his stay in the White House, Mr. Biden and his administration would do everything to leave the worst legacy [to Trump’s administration] in terms of bilateral relations with Russia. They consistently follow this line,” Peskov told reporters.
In addition, it is now premature to talk about a change in Washington’s rhetoric regarding Ukraine conflict settlement before Trump officially comes to power, the spokesman said.
