There may be some easing of tensions between Moscow and Washington after Donald Trump's victory in elections, Guy Mettan, also a journalist and writer, told Sputnik Africa.The Republican's return to the White House will give positive momentum towards a negotiated settlement of the crisis in Ukraine, he noted.However, he does not expect this to lead to a ceasefire or a negotiated end to the fighting in Ukraine. He reminds us that Trump supplied Ukraine with weapons, CIA agents, and military experts.Regarding anti-Russian sanctions, the politician does not think they will be lifted easily or quickly because the gap between the West and Russia is likely to persist.On the other hot spot, the Middle East, the journalist expects Israel to further its repression of Lebanon, Syria, and Gaza, resorting to more bombing and destruction.Generally speaking, the 47th President will focus on the United States itself, the former politician added. His objective is to "restore to America not only its place in the world, but above all to rebuild it within its own walls, economically and also in terms of social relations."

The presidential election in the United States took place on November 5. The main battle for the Oval Office was between Democratic candidate Vice President Kamala Harris and Republican former US President Donald Trump, who has been declared winner by several US media outlets.
There may be some easing of tensions between Moscow and Washington after Donald Trump's victory in
elections,
Guy Mettan, also a journalist and writer, told
Sputnik Africa.
The Republican's return to the White House will give positive momentum towards a negotiated settlement of the crisis in Ukraine, he noted.
However, he does not expect this to lead to a ceasefire or a negotiated
end to the fighting in Ukraine. He reminds us that Trump supplied Ukraine with weapons, CIA agents, and military experts.
"The key element will be the result on the ground. That is to say, the further the Russian army advances, the greater the Ukrainians and the West will be pushed to negotiate," he explained.
Regarding
anti-Russian sanctions, the politician does not think they will be lifted easily or quickly because the gap between the West and Russia is likely to persist.
On the other hot spot, the Middle East, the journalist expects Israel to further its repression of Lebanon, Syria, and Gaza, resorting to more bombing and destruction.
"Trump has always been more favorable to Israel than the Democrats," Guy Mettan pointed out. He believes it's likely that Netanyahu and the extremist Israeli government will feel emboldened by this election.
Generally speaking, the 47th President will focus on the United States itself, the former politician added. His objective is to "
restore to America not only its place in the world, but above all to rebuild it within its own walls, economically and also in terms of social relations."
