America’s rival China and Russia have also reacted to the victory of Donald Trump in the presidential elections. Formal congratulatory messages from both countries have not been seen so far, but official comments on Donald Trump’s victory have definitely come out.
According to the news agency “Reuters”, China has announced that it will work with the United States on the basis of mutual respect.
Speaking at a press conference in Beijing on Wednesday, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Mao Ning said that our policy towards the US is consistent and we will continue our relations with the US based on the principles of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence and cooperation.
But Chinese strategists say they expect more fiery rhetoric and actions from Trump, though some say his isolationist foreign policy could give China room to expand its global influence.
Strategists also say China is poised for a bitter superpower rivalry over trade, technology and security.
Tong Zhao of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace said China had expected a tight contest in the US election, and while a Trump victory is not China’s preferred outcome and raises concerns, it is not entirely unexpected. is

After Trump’s election as US president, Russia reacted cautiously on Wednesday, saying that the US is still an enemy state and only time will tell if Trump’s rhetoric about ending the war in Ukraine will translate into reality. Is it or not?
Russian spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Trump made some important statements during his campaign about wanting to end the war in Ukraine, but only time will tell if those words are followed through on.
“We must not forget that we are talking about an unfriendly country that is directly and indirectly involved in war against our state (in Ukraine),” Peskov said.
Peskov said he was not aware of any plans by President Vladimir Putin to congratulate Trump on his victory.
He also said that Russia’s relations with America are still at a very low level compared to the past.
Russian and American diplomats say that relations between the world’s two major nuclear powers have deteriorated during the Cold War.
As the results came in, fear spread, setting up an iron fence outside the White House
On behalf of Putin, Russian officials said before the election that whoever wins the US presidential election will not matter to Russia.
The Russian Foreign Ministry said that Russia has no misunderstanding about Trump.

**Interview with Dr. Ellen Carter, International Relations Expert**
**Editor:** Thank you for joining us today, Dr. Carter. The reactions from China and Russia regarding Donald Trump’s recent election victory seem to indicate a cautious stance. What do you think are the broader implications for U.S. foreign policy moving forward?
**Dr. Carter:** Thank you for having me. The responses from both China and Russia reflect the evolving dynamics of international relations as we enter this new chapter under Trump’s presidency. China has emphasized principles of mutual respect and cooperation, signaling a desire to maintain a working relationship, despite its expectations of a more aggressive stance from Trump. In contrast, Russia’s reaction highlights ongoing tensions, particularly with their characterization of the U.S. as an “enemy state.”
**Editor:** China has expressed that it anticipates an escalation in rhetoric from Trump, particularly regarding trade and technology. How do you think this will affect U.S.-China relations?
**Dr. Carter:** Indeed, analysts in China are preparing for heightened confrontations in these areas. Trump’s “America First” policy may give China more latitude to assert itself globally, while also deepening the competitive nature of U.S.-China relations. If both nations engage in aggressive posturing, we could see significant ramifications for global trade frameworks and international security agreements.
**Editor:** Russia’s comments suggest skepticism about Trump’s intentions, especially regarding the conflict in Ukraine. What does this mean for U.S.-Russia relations?
**Dr. Carter:** Russia’s caution is indicative of a larger strategic calculation. If Trump’s rhetoric about resolving the Ukraine conflict remains just that—rhetoric—Russia might view the U.S. as unwilling to engage on key security issues. This could lead to further entrenchment of positions and possibly even exacerbate tensions in Eastern Europe. Ultimately, time will reveal whether Trump can translate his campaign promises into substantive policy changes.
**Editor:** With the backdrop of these reactions, what do you think Americans should consider as the new administration sets its agenda?
**Dr. Carter:** Americans should be aware that foreign policy will significantly impact domestic issues, such as the economy and national security. It will be crucial for the administration to build alliances and communicate effectively to manage these international relationships. The global landscape is shifting, and how the U.S. positions itself will be vital in shaping the coming years.
**Editor:** Thank you for your insights, Dr. Carter. Your analysis sheds light on the potential challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for U.S. foreign relations under President Trump.
**Dr. Carter:** Thank you for having me. It’s an exciting yet unpredictable time in international politics, and I look forward to seeing how it unfolds.
