Russia has welcomed the United States’ newly unveiled national security strategy under President Donald Trump, calling it a realistic and balanced document that aligns closely with Moscow’s global outlook. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said the adjustments in the U.S. strategy “corresponded with Russia’s vision for global stability,” particularly praising its stance on NATO expansion and the emphasis on restoring strategic balance. The updated doctrine shifts Washington’s tone on Europe, framing it as a battleground for civilizational values while urging a negotiated end to the Ukraine war — a move viewed by analysts as signaling pressure on Kyiv to accept territorial concessions.
