The Kremlin has hit out at a video promoting the US presidential hopeful Donald Trump, complaining it demonises Russia’s image.
“I saw this clip. I do not know for sure if Vladimir Putin saw it. [But] our attitude is negative,” the Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.
The video posted to Trump’s Instagram account attempts to cast doubt over the Democratic party frontrunner Hillary Clinton’s ability to deal with Putin and the US’s opponents in general, showing the Russian leader easily throwing an opponent in a judo bout.

Will republicans be asked to disavow Trump’s video? Will they?
Better than them LAUGHING at the current doofus-in-chief
Oh and the name is not Francis. It is Peskov. Dmitri Peskov.
Trump - Pissing off all the people that you’ve always known have needed it.
They do not want Trump for President. Barking Hillary would be more flexible!
Trump is running for US president and he and most Americans want enemies to fear us and friends to respect us.
[They do not want Trump for President. Barking Hillary would be more flexible!]
They want Hillary to do another useless “reset” of US-Russian relations so Putin can invade more countries.
No they do want Trump. I saw the average Russian interviewed about it and they were all quite positive about him.
Lighten up, Farty. Its not like your anti-smoking Obama ads didn’t do the same.
Sheesh...did I just defend Ojerkoff??
Another unsolicited endorsement from a top world leader.
sniffle....sniffle
Agree. I think the Russians had to make some kind of protest, just to say they disagreed with the portrayal of being a threat. Overall, I don’t think they’re that annoyed.
Remember what the Russians did by projecting that image of Obama eating a banana onto the US Embassy?
This reaction was pretty tame, in comparison.
My view is that the Russians would prefer someone like Trump in the WH as he is someone that would in the aggregate be more consistent in overall policy than neoCons or retard liberals.
Message:
Russia has a strong leader
Hillary is no match.
Anything else is baloney.
They thoroughly enjoyed treating the the United States and it's hapless leaders like a POS. Mind you, the POTUS and the SOS both deserved what we got.
The Russians only wish the US could have a Soviet, oops, I mean Russian politicasl system where a wealthy dictator SOB rules for life.
They know change is coming but have been paying out large sums for Sanders, Clinton and maybe even Cruz.
They want anybody but a strong US leader who will be an unpredictable factor for them.
They really enjoyed rubbing the USA’s face in feces and now, they will get a taste of their own medicine from President Trump.
Russians have a point.
The ad equates them to terrorists... as enemies of the US.
They have been bombing the terrorists for us,
now this ad puts them in the same boat.
Donald could score points by agreeing that it is somewhat out of line.
Ad is still funny as hell though, and they should lighten up a little.
Putin laughing at the end is great!
Maybe Vlad shouldn’t stage silly videos if he does not like them being recut and reused.
