We asked Ukrainians in Kyiv on the streets what they thought of Trump’s victory, and his most controversial comments about Ukraine and Russia.
As Donald Trump wins the U.S. Presidential election, Ukrainians prepare themselves for what this means for their nation.
Volodymyr Zelensky, President of Ukraine, said: “We will discuss the security challenges in Europe as well as opportunities for all partners.”
“This is not the final defeat. It is only a battle lost,” pro-Russian newcomer political Alexandr Stoianoglo stated three days after voting.
Denyslysenko, the head of the department that focuses on war crimes, stated that 49 criminal investigations are underway regarding the executions of Ukrainian POWs.
Trump has repeatedly stated that he could end the war with Russia “in 24 hours.” What is his plan?
Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev stated that “Trump is a businessman at heart who hates to spend money on freeloaders and idiotic allies. He also dislikes charity projects and greedy international organisations.”
The Russian newspaper Vedomosti reported that on November 5, four unnamed sources in importing companies said that the Chinese state-owned Sinosure, which insures export supplies for non-payment, has started to refuse to work with Russian entrepreneurs.
According to EXPRO calculations, gross natural-gas production increased by 2.3% in October 2020 compared to the same period last year, reaching 1.66 billion cubic meters – the highest level since the month of January 2022.
“The winds are blowing stronger than ever.” “Poland’s leadership will rise up to the occasion,” Polish foreign minister Radoslaw Sikorski told reporters, calling on European countries to increase defense spending.
“We have said repeatedly that the United States of America could help end the conflict of Ukraine. This cannot be achieved overnight, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated.
“They said that he would start a conflict. I am not going to start any wars, I will stop them,” said Donald Trump in a speech where he claimed victory over the 2024 presidential election.
Irakli Kobakhidze, Georgian Prime Minister, said on X: “I am confident President Trump’s leadership is going to promote peace globally as well as in our region and ensure restart in U.S.Georgia Relations.”
Overnight, Russia launched 63 Shaheds as well as other drones as well as two Kh-59s and Kh-31P guided rockets. The Ukrainian Air Force reported that 38 drones were shot by the air defenses of Ukraine over nine regions, while 22 drones were “lost”.
Donald Trump is projected as winning the swing state of Wisconsin. This puts him comfortably over the benchmark needed to win with 277 electoral vote.
The downing of the drone in Dagestan follows a drone strike that was unprecedented in Chechnya, which borders Dagestan.
“The biggest comeback ever in U.S. politics!” Congratulations to President Donald Trump for his incredible victory. “A much needed victory for the World!” Viktor Orban posted.
