Mr Putin also claimed that the conflict in Ukraine would never have happened if Mr Trump had been in the White House in 2022.
The American leader has always maintained the belief that a full-scale war would have been avoided had he been in office instead of Joe Biden, which Mr Putin said was correct.
The Russian President revealed that he had pleaded with Mr Biden to avoid allowing the situation to reach a point where “serious consequences in the form of military actions could occur".
Mr Putin added: "I have every reason to believe that by moving along this path, we can reach – and the sooner, the better – the end of the conflict in Ukraine."
