Bilateral relations between Russia and the United States will not fundamentally change with the arrival of the Democratic candidate Joe Biden as president of the United States. This was stated on Sunday, December 13, by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova.
“We are not interested in personalities, we are interested in bilateral cooperation in global issues. And, unfortunately, from the change of participants in the electoral processes, from the change of people in the White House, we do not see anything cardinal in terms of improving bilateral relations, “Zakharova said on the air of the Fetisov program on the Zvezda TV channel.
She also added that the process of containing Russia being popularized in the West is artificial.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov noted on December 1 that with his statements and statements, Biden makes it clear that in the event of his presidency, US foreign policy will be more similar to the course of ex-head of state Barack Obama.
At the end of November, the press secretary of the head of state Dmitry Peskov stressed that Russian President Vladimir Putin would congratulate the US President-elect after the election results were summed up.
General elections were held in the United States on November 3. According to media reports, Democrat Biden is ahead of the incumbent leader in terms of the number of voters and the number of electoral votes. Republican Trump is trying to challenge the vote in the courts.
Trump has already repeatedly announced his victory in the presidential elections by a wide margin, taking into account only the “legitimate votes.” In addition, the Republican Party in the US Congress rejected a resolution recognizing Biden as the country’s president-elect.
Trump added that the US presidential elections were held at the level of a third world country.
