Impact of Potential Trump Presidency on Ukraine-Russia Relations
Dmitry Medvedev, the former Russian president, has expressed that a win for Donald Trump in the U.S. presidential race might lead to less American support for Ukraine, putting the current Ukrainian leadership under pressure. Medvedev views Trump’s business-like approach to spending as advantageous for Russia and claims that Ukrainian officials could face decreased financial backing from the US. The Kremlin has responded cautiously to Trump’s potential victory.
