In a notable statement, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev expressed concerns over Donald Trump's victory in the U.S. presidential election, indicating potential challenges for Ukraine. Trump's anticipated presidency could impact U.S. financial involvement in Ukraine, raising questions about future international relations.
