With the recent buzz of
the American election it is easy to see how anyone could become swept up in the
chaos. However, one would expect officials who are leading countries,
especially those who share common goals and daily life, would want to be on
good terms with one another. This recent election was a very close election
that left Biden as the next President of the United States. In light of this despite
many congratulations coming in, there are powerful nations who have decided not
to extend any congratulatory sentiments for Biden just yet. Such areas as,
Russia, China, Turkey, Brazil, and Mexico have in the past openly spoke on
matters with the Trump administration and even extended congratulations in
advance to the swearing ceremony.
What could this mean for upcoming
President-elect? Does this mean that the United States will have upcoming
issues with these countries? Is there a bigger-picture situation being held
behind closed doors?
It could be very easy to
see why someone like Trump would not acknowledge the defeat of his campaign
yet, but if countries truly have no issue with dealing with the recently chosen
President then why have that not followed suit?
Some countries are
following the suit of Mexico, where they “are going to wait for all the legal
issues to be resolved… We do not want to act lightly” (CNN, link at bottom). This
is the way to prevent saying anything in event the election results be
reversed, but this could hold something foreboding for the relationship with
president-elect if election results stand as is. The next few weeks should
bring about many answers for all tuned in.
