Trump and Putin: A new course for peace or just empty words?

Trump and Putin: A new course for peace or just empty words?

Moskau, Russland - Moscow trembles with hope! The Kremlin sees a light at the end of the tunnel in Donald Trump, the newly elected US President. Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskow announced that the signals from Washington were "positive". While Joe Biden speaks of confrontation, Trump relies on peace and deals. "During the election campaign, he emphasized that he can achieve everything through negotiations," said Peskow. A clear difference to the current US government that Russia sees as a strategic opponent!

Putin congratulates Trump

Putin Himelfe congratulated Trump on his election victory on Thursday and shows that a telephone conversation between the two heads of state could still be possible before Trump's inauguration on January 20. Peskow emphasizes that Trump is less predictable than bidges and Harris, who, according to Putin, pursue a predictable policy. But the question remains: Trump keeps his promises from the election campaign?

Diplomatic relationships between Moscow and Washington are at a historic low point, especially because of the Russian war of attack against Ukraine. Most recently there were contacts through intermediaries, such as when exchanging prisoners. Trump, on the other hand, claims that he can quickly end the Ukraine conflict-possibly even before taking office. However, critics warn of his too close relationship with Russia and Putin. The world looks forward to the upcoming developments!
