The Russian Foreign Ministry said that Trump's victory reflects American dissatisfaction with the Joe Biden administration and the Democratic Party's election program.
They said that Trump won despite the “propaganda campaign” launched against him by the Democrats, but that this “does not negate the deep civil split in the United States.”
The Russian Federation, however, “has no illusions” about the American president-elect, who is “well known in Russia.”
“The ruling political elite in the United States, regardless of party affiliation, adheres to anti-Russian attitudes and a line of “containment of Moscow.” This line is not subject to fluctuations in the US domestic political barometer, whether it is “America First” as interpreted by Trump and his supporters or the “rule-based world order” that Democrats are “obsessed with,” the statement said.
