The media would love you to consider that Vladamir Putin is cheering Donald Trump’s victory, however the Kremlin has reiterated that America stays an unfriendly nation.
In actual fact, Putin didn’t immediately congratulate Trump on his victory, however the Kremlin did remark that his win could possibly be “helpful.” Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated hinted that he believes Trump’s declare that he may finish the struggle in 24 hours are unattainable. “We now have repeatedly stated that america might help finish the battle in Ukraine. This, in fact, can’t be finished in a single day,” Peskov stated. He added that he’s not conscious of any plans by Russian President Vladimir Putin to congratulate President-elect Trump.
Oddly sufficient, Zelensky DID congratulate Trump. “Congratulations to Donald Trump on his spectacular election victory!” he posted on X. “I recall our nice assembly with President Trump again in September, once we mentioned intimately the Ukraine-U.S. strategic partnership, the Victory Plan, and methods to place an finish to Russian aggression towards Ukraine,” Zelensky wrote. “I recognize President Trump’s dedication to the ‘peace by means of energy’ method in international affairs. That is precisely the precept that may virtually deliver simply peace in Ukraine nearer.”
Zelensky went a step additional and stated he hopes to congratulate Trump in individual, wishing to maintain the dialogue open. It appears as if Russia is just uninterested in America’s involvement on this struggle. They’ve been lied to by numerous politicians (see: Minsk Settlement) and don’t belief the US.
