Russian President Vladimir Putin heaped praise on Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump in an interview after his end-of-the-year press conference in Moscow. He said the controversial candidate's election would improve US relations with Russia.
"He's a really brilliant and talented person, without any doubt. It's not our job to judge his qualities, that's a job for American voters, but he's the absolute leader in the presidential race," Putin said, according to the Interfax news agency.

The admiration is mutual, with Trump having praised Russia's leader in the past. "He does not like Obama at all. He doesn't respect Obama at all. And I'm sure that Obama doesn't like him very much," the 69-year-old said of Putin in October. "But I think that I would probably get along with him very well. And I don't think you'd be having the kind of problems that you're having right now."
