Russia has said that it approves of the United States’ new foreign policy adding that it aligns with its vision after the Trump-Vance duo ganged-up on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during peace talks in White House on Friday.
“The new administration is rapidly changing all foreign policy configurations. This largely coincides with our vision,” Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told a reporter on Wednesday which were made public on Sunday, AFP reported.
“There is a long way to go, because there is huge damage to the whole complex of bilateral relations. But if the political will of the two leaders, President Putin and President Trump, is maintained, this path can be quite quick and successful,” he added.
Moscow, which initiated a large-scale military campaign against its neighbor in February 2022, had strongly opposed former US President Joe Biden’s unwavering support to Ukraine. Meanwhile, Trump has openly criticized Zelenskyy in a dramatic televised exchange at the Oval Office.
Donald Trump and JD Vance took upon Zelenskyy for being too difficult to negotiate peace talks after he said that Russian President Putin couldn’t be trusted with ceasefire. The diplomacy turned dirty after the two leaders bullied Zelenskyy for not being thankful enough to the States for negotiating peace.
The incident which was televised attracted attention from world leaders with most European nation heads, including Germany and France, rallying behind the Ukrainian president.
