In state media, there has been close scrutiny and sharp opinions of the picks. Vladimir Solovyov, one of the loudest propagandists on Russian state television, has even launched a hashtag "D Team," inviting his 1.3 million followers to track the nominations. This reflects the Kremlin’s vested interest in understanding how Trump’s appointments might affect U.S.-Russia relations, particularly regarding military aid to Ukraine and attitudes towards Putin.
Pro-Kremlin commentators painted some appointments as cautiously optimistic for Russia, hoping that Republicans will pursue a 'pragmatic' resolution to the Ukrainian conflict by forcing Kyiv into peace negotiations, emphasizing a shift towards addressing domestic issues instead.
