Israel

“Congratulations on history’s greatest comeback! Your historic return to the White House offers a new beginning for America and a powerful recommitment to the great alliance between Israel and America. This is a huge victory! In true friendship,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu posted on social media platform X.

Iran

The livelihoods of Iranians will not be affected by the US election, government spokeswoman Fatemeh Mohajerani told reporters after a cabinet meeting in Tehran.

“The US elections are not really our business. Our policies are steady and don’t change based on individuals. We made the necessary predictions before and there will not be change in people’s livelihoods,” she said.

Hamas

Trump’s victory puts to test his earlier statements that he can stop the war in Gaza within hours, Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri told the Reuters news agency. The Democratic party’s loss is the natural price for its leadership’s “criminal stance” towards Gaza, Abu Zuhri said, adding that “we urge Trump to learn from [US President Joe] Biden’s mistakes.”

China

“Our policy towards the US is consistent,” Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokeswoman Mao Ning said at a news briefing.
“We will continue to view and handle China-US relations in accordance with the principles of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation,” she added.

Ukraine

“I appreciate President Trump’s commitment to the ‘peace through strength’ approach in global affairs. This is exactly the principle that can practically bring just peace in Ukraine closer,” President Volodymyr Zelenskyy wrote on X.

United Kingdom

Prime Minister Keir Starmer said, “Congratulations President-elect Trump on your historic election victory. I look forward to working with you in the years ahead. As the closest of allies, we stand shoulder to shoulder in defence of our shared values of freedom, democracy and enterprise.”

NATO

Secretary-General Mark Rutte: “I just congratulated Donald Trump on his election as President of the United States. His leadership will again be key to keeping our Alliance strong. I look forward to working with him again to advance peace through strength through NATO.”

European Union

“The EU and the US are more than just allies. We are bound by a true partnership between our people, uniting 800 million citizens,” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said. “So let’s work together on a strong transatlantic agenda that keeps delivering for them.”

India

Congratulating Trump on a “historic election victory”, Prime Minister Narendra Modi posted on X that “as you build on the successes of your previous term, I look forward to renewing our collaboration to further strengthen the India-US Comprehensive Global and Strategic Partnership.”

Russia

“Trump has one useful quality for us: as a businessman to the core, he mortally dislikes spending money on various hangers-on and stupid hanger-on allies, on bad charity projects and on voracious international organisations,” former President Dmitry Medvedev posted on the Telegram messaging app.

    So in other words, a Trump win makes things even worse for Gaza. Where have I heard that before?? 🤔

        Well at least we made sure to give the genocidal regime that clearly wanted Trump in the whitehouse what they wanted. I’m sure that will bring some positive change.

        Oh I think you’ll just need to wait a short while to see whether that statement is true.

          Nope, genocide is genocide. If you support and enable a little, you enable all of it. It doesn’t stop. Under Biden Israel and the US have expanded their genocide from just Palestinians to all nearby arabs. Trump will allow further expansion, the dem elected after Trump with expand it further, until the US is destroyed or fascism wins and the global world government resulting from it is destroyed.

            Well thank goodness we elected the leader who can’t be reasoned with instead of the one who might have been able to be reasoned with. Plus now we can get all the domestic abuse we can eat, which we’d have skipped out on entirely with Harris.

              You libs are deeply unserious. How the fuck can Kamala be reasoned with? The same Copmala that said the US army needs to be the strongest, most lethal fighting force in the world.

              Also, THE DEMOCRATS FUNDED THE GENOCIDE.

              Hitler 1 and Hitler 2 cannot be reasoned with.

              Why do you people think you could negotiate with Harris? Biden and the Dems leadership have done nothing but override popular positions. The beloved vp of the Harris campaign, the most progressive actual dem to ever run for that position, fucking called the military on civilians instead of doing anything about police brutality in his state.

              Also if you’re willing to accept genocide on the idea you might be spared if you do, you’re a Nazi. That was the Nazi excuse. “We need to kill them so we can be spared.”
