The 78-year-old Donald Trump, who gleefully hailed a “magnificent” win, received a rush of congratulations from foreign leaders on Wednesday. These leaders expressed their congrats to the newly elected President.

NBC News has predicted that Donald Trump would emerge victorious in the presidency contest.

When Trump was speaking to his supporters in Florida, he stated that his return to the White House will herald in the “golden age” of the United States of America.

Keir Starmer, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, is congratulating Donald Trump on his “historic” election victory. He also stated that the “special relationship” between the United Kingdom and the United States will continue to flourish on both sides of the Atlantic for many years to come.

A number of other world leaders, including the President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen, the President of France Emmanuel Macron, the Prime Minister of Spain Pedro Sanchez, the Prime Minister of Italy Giorgia Meloni, and the Prime Minister of Hungary Viktor Orban, have also extended their congratulations to President Trump.

The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, sent his congratulations to President Trump on what he referred to as his “impressive election victory.”

“The devotion of President Trump to the ‘peace through strength’ approach in international affairs is something that I like and respect. The concept in question is precisely the one that has the potential to bring about a more equitable peace in Ukraine. Zelenskyy expressed his optimism on social media, saying, “I am hopeful that we will put it into action together.”

Under the resolute leadership of President Trump, we are looking forward to an age in which the United States of America will be a powerful nation. “We are dependent on the continued strong support for Ukraine that comes from both parties in the United States,” he added.

The statements made by Zelenskyy come at a time when tensions are expected to be running high in Kyiv. The vote in the United States is seen to be a potentially decisive moment in the country’s arduous struggle against Russia, which has been going on for years.

There are worries that future military assistance to the Eastern European country may be cut off, which would drastically reduce Kyiv’s ability to fight back against Russia’s full-scale invasion. According to reports, Ukrainian authorities are keeping a tight eye on the outcome of the election.

In the meantime, Russia seems to be pleased by the news that Trump has achieved a victory in the nomination for the White House.

“Trump has one quality that is useful to us: as a businessman to the core, he mortally dislikes spending money on various hangers-on and freeloaders – on idiotic allies, on stupid charity projects, and on gluttonous international organizations,” Dmitry Medvedev, Russia’s former president, said via Telegram, according to an NBC translation. Medvedev’s statement was made in reference to the fact that Trump is a businessman.

“Kamala Harris was right when she quoted Psalm 31:5: ‘Weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning.'” Maria Zakharova, a spokesperson for the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, stated in a Telegram message.

According to a translation provided by NBC, Zakharova had the following to say: “Hallelujah, I’d add from my part.”

In a separate statement, NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte stated that the leadership of President Trump will be essential to maintaining the strength of the military alliance.

According to Rutte, “I am looking forward to working with him once more to advance peace through strength through the organization of NATO.”

Iran, Turkey, India, Australia, and Israel are involved.

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan of Turkey sent his congratulations to President Trump on his electoral victory.

“In this new period that will begin with the elections of the American people, I hope that relations between Turkey and the United States will strengthen, that regional and global crises and wars, particularly the Palestinian issue and the war between Russia and Ukraine, will come to an end; I believe that more efforts will be made for a more just world,” Erdoğan stated.

He continued by saying, “I hope that the elections will be beneficial for our friendly and allied people in the United States as well as for all of humanity if they are successful.”

To express his congratulations on Trump’s “historic election victory,” Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi issued a statement.

“As you continue to build on the achievements of your previous term, I am looking forward to maintaining our partnership in order to further develop the Comprehensive Global and Strategic Partnership between India and the United States. In the words of Modi, “Let us work together for the betterment of our people and to promote global peace, stability, and prosperity.”

Anthony Albanese, the Prime Minister of Australia, also extended his congratulations to Donald Trump.

“Australians and Americans are true allies and wonderful friends,” said the speaker. “If we work together, we will be able to ensure that the partnership that exists between our nations and peoples will continue to be strong into the future,” according to Albanese.

Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, sent his congratulations to both Donald and Melania Trump in a separate statement.

Congratulations on the most famous comeback in the annals of history! Your historic return to the White House promises a fresh beginning for the United States of America and a tremendous recommitment to the great relationship that exists between Israel and the United States,” Netanyahu said earlier. He continued by saying, “This is a huge victory!”

On the other hand, not everyone expressed their best wishes to President Trump.

“The United States presidential election does not have any direct relevance to Iran, as the fundamental policies of both the United States and Iran remain unchanged,” stated Fatemeh Mohajerani, a spokesman for the Iranian government, in a statement, as reported by Tasnim, the semiofficial news agency of Iran.

Regardless of who is elected president, there will be no effect on people’s ability to make a living, according to Mohajerani, who stated that it is of little consequence.
