Donald Trump's victory in the U.S. presidential
election came as surprise not only to the Ukrainian establishment. The Russian
FSB did an "encore" with their provocation involving the so-called
"Ukrainian saboteurs in Crimea". Petro Poroshenko's visit to Slovenia
has chances to transform into more prospects for bilateral cooperation.
The campaign ahead of the election of the 45th
president of the United States was perceived around the world as a bright
political show with a fairly predictable outcome. However, Donald Trump managed
to overturn numerous predictions that favored Hillary Clinton. He even managed
to confidently secure controversial key states, not only the basic Republican
strongholds. The secret of Trump’s victory is quite simple: in his campaign he
strictly targeted his electorate, managing to achieve ultimate mobilization of
his voters, imposing upon the residents of "one-storey America” a simple
and effective idea that “our people are being mistreated".
To her credit, Hillary
Clinton quickly conceded the election, although this seriously minimizes her
prospects for further political career. On the other hand, the first speech of
the winner in his new capacity showed the difference between the pre-election
rhetoric and the agenda of the president-elect.
