Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia views US Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris as a more predictable opponent than Republican Donald Trump, although he emphasized that there is no expectation for improved relations with Washington. In an interview, Peskov downplayed Trump's claims of being able to end the Ukraine conflict within 24 hours, calling such assertions a 'fantasy.' He noted that the predictability attributed to Biden also applies to most Democrats, including Harris. Peskov criticized ongoing US actions toward Russia, stating they have crossed unacceptable limits and contributed to a historic low in bilateral relations. He reiterated that it is unrealistic to expect a new US president to halt military aid to Ukraine or initiate peace negotiations at their inauguration. Overall, Peskov's remarks reflect a lack of optimism regarding future US-Russia relations regardless of the election outcome.
