The Kremlin announced that President Vladimir Putin will not congratulate Donald Trump on his election win. This marks a shift from 2016 when Putin was among the first to send congratulations.
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated that U.S.-Russia relations are at a historical low and it is unlikely they will worsen further. He emphasized that future relations depend on U.S. leadership.
Peskov noted that Russia is waiting to see Trump's actions regarding the Ukraine conflict before engaging in negotiations. He mentioned that statements may change once Trump is in office.
