In contrast, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev commented that Trump’s victory could spell trouble for Ukraine, although he expressed uncertainty about how much Trump would reduce U.S. financial support for the war.
Trump, who claimed victory after Fox News projected his win over Democrat Kamala Harris, celebrated his remarkable political comeback. “America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate,” Trump announced early Wednesday at the Palm Beach County Convention Center, standing alongside his vice presidential pick, Senator JD Vance, and other Republican leaders and family members.
Trump also took the opportunity to thank Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, for contributing approximately $120 million to support his campaign. “I plan to appoint Musk to head a government efficiency commission,” Trump stated, signaling his intentions for the next phase of his administration.
