Russia Downplays Prospects of U.S.-Russia Relations Improvement Following Trump’s Election Victory

Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov expressed uncertainty regarding any intentions by President Vladimir Putin to congratulate Donald Trump on his victory in the U.S. election. Peskov emphasized that it was crucial not to forget the strained relationship between Russia and the United States, which he described as an “unfriendly” one.

Moscow Closely Monitoring U.S. Political Statements

Peskov also noted that Moscow is closely monitoring and analyzing the rhetoric of American politicians regarding Russia, signaling that the Kremlin remains vigilant about the evolving political landscape in Washington.

U.S.-Russia Relations at Historic Low

Commenting on the state of bilateral relations, Peskov acknowledged that U.S.-Russia ties are currently at an all-time low. He remarked that it seemed nearly impossible for relations to deteriorate further, suggesting a deepening divide between the two nations.

Will Trump’s Presidency Change U.S. Foreign Policy?

While Peskov acknowledged the possibility that the U.S. could alter its foreign policy approach, he emphasized that it would be in January, once Trump takes office, before any meaningful changes could be observed. The Kremlin remains cautious about what direction U.S. policies might take under the new leadership.

More details awaited.
