| Vladimir Putin Congratulates Donald Trump |
This is where a person shows himself, and he showed himself in my opinion in a very correct way, courageously like a man. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate him on his election as president of the United States. I have already said that we will work with any head of state that the American people have given them the mandate. This will indeed be the case in practice. Putin has made his first public remarks on Trump's victory. He began by praising Donald Trump, calling him courageous for reacting the way he did.
After the attempt on his life, Putin then congratulated Trump on his election win and said that he would be willing to work with the incoming US president. Basically, Putin is open to resetting ties with the United States, but the ball is in Trump's court. Russia is waiting to see what he does once he takes office, and Putin isn't the only American adversary who reacted this way; there was also Venezuelan President Nicholas Maduro. We did not do well in the first administration of reelected President Donald Trump.
It is a new beginning for us to bet on winning and for the United States and Venezuela to do well. We always advocate for Latin America and the Caribbean to do well as much as there have been tensions in relations when they tried to attempt against Trump's life twice. I do not hesitate for a second to express my solidarity and wish him good health and a long life. Maduro acknowledged that he did not share a good relationship with Trump, not during his first term anyway. The two were at loggerheads. Trump exerted massive pressure on Venezuela, hoping for
Maduro's our Despite this, Maduro sees this as a new beginning, a win-win relationship with Donald Trump. Maduro also mentioned the assassination attempts; he expressed solidarity with Trump and wished him a long life. It's quite the shift in tone, so both Russia and Venezuela are looking for a reset. Now look at the third reaction from Argentina. I congratulate President-elect Donald Trump for the great victory in the elections held yesterday. You know that you can count on Argentina to make the United States great again, and we
Know that we can count on you to make Argentina great again. I wish you the greatest success and blessings. Long live freedom that was Javier Mle, the president of Argentina, could not be happier with this result. He had backed Trump from the very beginning. M sees him as a natural Ally, so he's thrilled, and he isn't even waiting for Trump's inauguration. He's flying to the US next week to meet Donald Trump at his Maralago residence and congratulate him in person. Joining them will be a mutual friend. Elon Musk has backed both
these leaders so he may be able to help strengthen ties. That's what Aier will be hoping anyway. It seems there are good days ahead for Argentina. Another leader thrilled about Trump is Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orban. Last month he said that he would celebrate Trump's victory with several bottles of champagne. Yesterday he gave an update. I only partially kept my promise. We also opened champagne, but I was in Kyan. When Donald Trump won, but there the customs were different, that's why we happily tapped the Vodka set together.
being happy with this fantastic result Orban was hosting a summit yesterday, a summit of the European Political Community. Hungary has the European Union's rotating presidency right now. EU leaders were meeting to discuss the US election and decide on what Europe should do next. Most EU leaders were worried, but Orban was not; he didn't even try to hide his excitement. Orban has been at odds with most of Europe for a while now. He has opposed the war in Russia, excessive dependence on the US, and a number of other policies. His outlook is
More aligned with Trump than Europe now this was a weakness in the past but now Orban's influence is set to increase so obviously he was quite happy but the rest of Europe definitely is not they know that things are about to change like many I had the opportunity yesterday to speak the president-elect Donald Trump some of us around this table know him from four years ago in his previous position I congratulated him but basically I think that our role here in the European Union is not to comment on the election of
Donald Trump to wonder if it is good or not. The question is, are we ready to defend the interests of Europeans? That is the only question that we should ask ourselves, and for me, I think that is our priority. Europe is preparing for Less help from the US, maybe no help in the Ukraine war. Trump says he wants the war to end. Europe does not want Russia to gain territory, so it wants to keep backing Kyiv, but will they be able to? We'll probably see soon enough that Trump's victory has shaken up the world.
Are preparing to go it alone, and only one thing is certain at the moment: nothing can be taken for granted. Hello and welcome to the special edition of Vantage Live from the White House. America is Trump's country again; he will be the 47th president of the United States of America alive from the White House soon to be the new residence of Donald Trump. It was also here that Donald Trump broke the Abraham Accords, so the voters have a legitimate question in their minds: if those presidents could do it, why not Joe Biden, the Arab voters?
want to punish the Democrats for supporting Israel Joe Biden's shadow looms large over this election, and Kamla Harris may end up paying the price for it. This Trump hat says President Trump saved America, but this hat is made in China, and this is a Chinese interference that Americans must be investigating, but off late Donald Trump and the Republicans have made some gains, and the biggest reason for that is illegal immigration. This is more than just a March; they say this is a demand for accountability.
The tension is palpable. You can see the security presence. You can see the number of police cars and government buildings like these again fenced up. We are at Howard University. Mar of Kamala Harris, as the night progressed, uh, numbers came in thick and fast. Donald Trump was soon declared the winner. It's being called a historic comeback. Another American presidency will begin in Donald Trump's case, his second one.
