Kudrin says Trump’s victory means 'continuation of Brexit'

'It will ‘moderate’ his controversial intentions'

Donald Trump’s victory in the U.S. presidential elections is the continuation of Britain’s vote to withdraw from the European Union (Brexit), Head of Russia's Center for Strategic Research (CSR) and ex-finance minister Alexei Kudrin wrote on his Twitter account on Nov. 9.

"The U.S. elections demonstrate that many are not satisfied with the current dynamics of global processes," he said, adding that the elections means "the continuation of Brexit."

Американские выборы показывают, что нынешняя динамика глобальных процессов многих не устраивает. Продолжение Brexit

According to Kudrin, despite certain Trump’s statements on economic issues, he depends on the country’s existing system. "It will ‘moderate’ his controversial intentions," he wrote.

Несмотря на некоторые заявления Трампа по эконом вопросам, он зависит от сложившейся системы. Она "сгладит" его неоднозначные намерения
