Trump praises 'very smart' Putin for response against US

 U. S. President-elect Donald Trump on Friday praised Russian President Vladimir Putin for not reacting immediately to Washington's move to punish it over alleged election-related interference.


"Great move on delay (by V. Putin) - I always knew he was very smart!" Trump tweeted, and pinned his tweet.

The Russian Embassy in the United States has retweeted Trump's post.

Putin on Friday condemned a new round of U.S. sanctions against Russia. But he said Moscow would not retaliate by expelling American diplomats.
