Russia warmly welcomed the U.S. presidential election victory of Donald Trump with officials, analysts, and ordinary citizens cautiously hoping it could turn a new page in relations between Russia and the United States. Russian analysts say there are still many unknowns about Trump and whether his campaign rhetoric will translate into policy.

A mock election organized by the U.S. Embassy in Moscow was quickly overtaken by startling results in the real presidential race.

Russian President Vladimir Putin congratulated Trump, saying he hoped to work together with the next American president to lift relations out of the current crisis. On the streets of Moscow, Trump's victory was welcomed by most Russians.

But Russian media coverage and praise for Trump during his campaign raised expectations for a man unknown to politics who was not supposed to win and whose policies are not yet clear.

Regardless of hopes and expectations, a U.S. led by Donald Trump begins a new chapter in relations with Russia.

俄罗斯热烈欢迎唐纳德·川普当选为美国总统。俄罗斯政府官员，分析人士和普通民众都对俄美关系能掀开新的篇章抱持审慎乐观的态度。俄罗斯分析人士说，至于川普以及他的竞选言论能否转化为现实，仍有很多未知数。

俄罗斯总统普京对川普表示祝贺，并说他希望与下届美国总统一道努力，让两国关系从当前危机中走出来。在莫斯科街头，多数俄罗斯人对川普胜选表示欢迎。
