Putin allies praise Trump as 'Lenin of 21st century' for ditching Ukraine aid Vladimir Putin propagandists have positively compared Donald Trump to Communist dictator Vladimir Lenin as they heaped praise on him for ditching aid to Ukraine.
While Trump's pausing of foreign aid will have a global impact, Ukrainian officials said on Tuesday they might well have escaped the worst effects.
Russia-1 TV anchor and one of the dictator's most prominent propagandists Olga Skabeyeva and her male co-host reacted to Trump's first day of his second term.
The hosts then celebrated Trump pause on all foreign aid, including for Ukraine.
Trump's return to the highest office in the US was praised an incredible feat by one of the commentators on Russia's most popular public news channel.
