Commenting on the current political race for the post of the Tory leader and the country's prime minister, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Russia was ready to work with the elected prime minister, APA reports citing Sputnik.
"We will respect the results of the elections and are ready to work with everyone, who is ready to work with Russia," Putin said.
Relations between Russia and the UK are not up to the mark as in 2018 the British government accused Moscow of being responsible for the Salisbury poisoning, in which ex-GRU operative Sergei Skripal and his daughter, Yulia, were exposed to what UK authorities claimed was the Novichok nerve agent.
Russia has denied the allegations and has proposed its aid in the investigation - something which the UK refused to accept, as well as to provide samples of the substance allegedly used against the Skripals.
