Summary

Russian official Dmitry Medvedev, a close ally of Vladimir Putin, suggested Donald Trump’s election victory may benefit Russia’s interests in Ukraine, citing Trump’s reluctance to fund “idiotic allies” and “voracious international organizations.”

Although Medvedev stopped short of celebrating, he hinted Trump’s aversion to foreign spending could weaken U.S. support for Ukraine.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky cautiously congratulated Trump, recalling their recent discussion on U.S.-Ukraine cooperation.

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov maintained a guarded tone, noting the U.S. remains an “unfriendly country” involved in the Ukraine conflict.

    Yes this loss lies squarely with the Democratic Party and their failure to produce a candidate that could win. Instead they forced Kamala on us and campaigned on “Trump bad” instead of policies that would benefit ALL Americans. Not just outlier groups they were trying to win, particularly failing to win any meaningful support from Hispanic and Muslim voters.
