Moscow Pleased with Trump Statements on Long-Range Missile Attacks

Russian Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov responded today to the Nov. 25 statements by Donald Trump in his Time magazine interview, on his opposition to the decision to allow Ukraine to use U.S. long-range missiles on targets in Russia. “The statement in itself fully coincides with our position. That is, our visions of reasons behind the escalation coincide. And, of course, we like that,” Peskov told reporters in Moscow. However, Peskov said it was too early to predict what decisions Trump could make upon his inauguration.
