Russian media reacts with concern to Biden's approval of long-range missile strikes for Ukraine

Russian state media is reacting with anxiety to reports that U.S. President Joe Biden has approved long-range missile strikes for Ukraine against Russian military targets. This follows a period of optimism in Russia regarding Donald Trump's potential return to the presidency. Despite initial dismissals of the news as propaganda, Russian commentators express concern over Ukraine's ability to retaliate. Some state media figures speculate that Trump will reverse Biden's decision once he takes office, reflecting a belief that he will prioritize Russian interests. The prevailing sentiment among Russian media is that Trump will not support Ukraine and may instead help Russia solidify its gains. There are comparisons made between Trump and historical figures, with hopes that his leadership will shift global power dynamics in favor of Russia.
